Arnold kicks ass on Mars

Rating: 7/10 (27 November 1998)

The family was in the mood for action-adventure so I picked it out at the video store. It didn't disappoint providing a clever sci-fi memory modification premise....is it a dream or reality (or a dream within a dream)? Set in the future both on Earth and Mars the movie doesn't have the sophistication of Outland, but surely holds its own in the T2-style arena. Non-stop action, good special effects, this hits the spot when a shoot-em-up is called for....and it's aging well. The teenagers (16 and 19) enjoyed it, as did the reviewer, Dad. Mom hated it, but she's not writing the review so it gets an 8!
