OK, so Soldier isn't deep and meaningful like Blade Runner or as big budget as Terminator 2 but on the whole I found it quite enjoyable.

The fact that Kurt Russell stayed in character not speaking and being virtually emotionless made the moments when his humanity broke through all the more poignant. I found his portrayal of restricted emotional development more touching than Arnie's in the T films (and before I get comments yes I know that Arnie was a cyborg and Kurt was human but the premise put forward by both films was the same).

So to the film itself, a reasonable US/Brit cast are able to flesh out this little story. Not really sure if Gary Busey and his two deputies were baddies or goodies, so was unable to decide whether I liked them or not. The colony was a little more realistic neither a misguided bunch of peace loving/gullible/cowardly hicks who get wiped out from the get go nor a group of subversive aggressive terrorists paranoid about offworlders and each other.

Kurt Russell is good and unlike other comments I do not feel this will have a negative impact on his career (unlike maybe Escape from LA - sequels are such fickle creatures!). Sean Pertwee has really done his late father proud by continuing the families noble Sci-Fi lineage. And the rest of the cast helped flesh out this pathetic band of people making the most of a bad situation and not doing too badly.

If you see this on your TV schedule I would recommend giving it a chance. I don't think you will be disappointed.

Soldaten är inte djup och meningsfull som Blade Runner eller lika stor budget som Terminator 2, men på det hela taget tyckte jag att det var ganska roligt. Det faktum att Kurt Russell inte talade och var känslolös gjorde att hans mänsklighet bröt igenom desto mer gripande. Jag tyckte att hans porträttering av begränsad känsloutveckling var mer rörande än Arnies i T-filmerna (och innan jag får kommentarer ja jag vet att Arnie var en cyborg och Kurt var mänsklig men premissen som lades fram av båda filmerna var densamma). Så till själva filmen, en rimlig US / Brit rollbesättning kan fylla ut denna lilla historia. Jag är inte säker på om Gary Busey och hans två vicesheriffer var dåliga eller goda, så jag kunde inte avgöra om jag gillade dem eller inte. Kolonin var lite mer realistisk varken ett missriktat gäng fredsälskande/godtrogna/fjantiga hicks som blir utplånade från få go eller en grupp omstörtande aggressiva terrorister paranoida om offworlders och varandra. Kurt Russell är bra och till skillnad från andra kommentarer känner jag inte att detta kommer att ha en negativ inverkan på hans karriär (till skillnad från kanske Escape från LA - uppföljare är sådana ombytliga varelser!). Sean Pertwee har verkligen gjort sin bortgångne far stolt genom att fortsätta familjerna adliga Sci-Fi-ätten. Och resten av skådespelarna hjälpte till att fylla ut denna patetiska grupp människor som gör det mesta av en dålig situation och inte gör för illa. Om du ser det här på tv:n rekommenderar jag att du ger det en chans. Jag tror inte att du kommer att bli besviken. Hur skulle du beskriva känslan av denna recension? ALTERNATIV: - negativ - positiv
The soldier is not deep and meaningful as Blade Runner or as big a budget as Terminator 2, but overall I thought it was quite funny. The fact that Kurt Russell did not speak and was unfeeling meant that his humanity broke through all the more poignant.

The colony was a little more realistic neither a misguided gang of peace-loving/credulous/stupid hicks being wiped out from few goes nor a group of subversive aggressive terrorists paranoid about offworlders and each other.
