Soldier (1998)
In a future society, some people are chosen at birth to become soldiers, and they are trained to become inhumane killers. One of the most successful and older ones (Russell) is against a new group of soldiers, after they believe he has died. His body is left in a quasi-deserted colonial planet, where everything is peaceful and taught about other aspects of life. But in the end he must fight the new generation of soldiers again, this time to defend his new home.

Soldier didn't deserve to be treated so harshly critics, but it didn't deserve recommendations either.

There's too little character development and no reason to care.

Disappointing.

...poignancy doesn't interfere with director Anderson's primary objective, which is to show people shooting each other and blowing stuff up.

Wow. What a terrible movie.

A potent comic-book-style action-adventure.

Despite being hampered by second-rate special effects and too many action film cliches, Soldier does have its fun parts.

This appealing formulaic action adventure (1998) displays a lot of conviction in its not-too-flashy action scenes and a little levity in the gradual socialization of Russell's character.

Has there ever been a more insipid sci-fi action film than Soldier? Probably, although it's hard to imagine.

Soldier is so mediocre, it might have been more mindless fun if it had been even worse.

I doubt that Kurt Russell has ever had less dialogue to work with than he has in this film.

The action is handled fairly well, but it's routine, and there's no satisfaction in seeing Todd waste men who are no more bloodthirsty than he is.
