A military computer (which controls previously-dead
soldiers who've been transformed into almost-indestructible super-zombie-computerized
warriors) blows a chip, goes amuck and threatens the world with domination. Enter
Jean-Claude Van Damme who proceeds to repeatedly punch, kick and shoot the computer and
his minions. With Michael Jai White, Heidi Schanz, Xander Berkeley, Justin Lazard, Kiana
Tom, Daniel von Bargen, James Black, Karis Paige Bryant, Bill Goldberg, Brent Anderson,
Brent Hinkley, Woody Watson, Jacqueline Klein and Maria Arita. [1:19]
SEX/NUDITY 5 - One kiss and some mild sexual innuendo. A man tears a
woman's shirt and glares at her cleavage. He threatens that he's going to
violate her (nothing happens). We see another woman in her bra as she's changing
clothes. We see several topless men flexing their muscles. During one extended scene in a
strip club we see many topless women in thongs and high heels dancing and gyrating to
music. A woman propositions another woman (she declines) and we see in a couple of women,
and a man dressed as a woman, engaged in phone sex.
VIOLENCE/GORE 8 - There are many scenes of mayhem and destruction and many
men are shot and killed during several scenes. Their bodies jerk as they are hit but there
is little blood. Several nearly indestructible super-zombie-computerized soldiers are shot
but nothing much happens to them. Several men go through windows, some go down stairs, and
two men fall from a building. Two more people jump from a building. We see several men on
fire -- however we do not see them burned -- and two men are electrocuted. A
zombie-soldier is hit and run over by a truck. We see him under the truck, with the tire
pinning his arm down (he's actually only temporarily knocked out and is essentially
unharmed); he also rams a concrete wall headfirst with minimum damage. A man is stabbed on
the chest, and he pulls the bloody knife out. There are several martial-arts fights, with
a lot of punching and kicking and some bone-breaking but little blood. A man is being
operated on by a computer which uses a laser beam to cut a rectangle from the top of his
bald head. In a close-up we see the rectangular skull piece being removed, a computer chip
is inserted into his brain (this last scene is shown only on an X-ray monitor) and then
the skull piece is put back and the incision is totally excised by the laser beam. A man
and a woman are chased by machine-gun toting zombie-soldiers on jet skis. They exchange
fire and several of the soldiers fall into the water. A man is frozen and when hit he
crumbles in many solid pieces (no blood or other fluids are evident). A few men try to
drown another man by holding his head under water. A young girl is in a hospital bed,
unconscious, and with a big bump on her head. There are several explosions and a woman
punches a man.
PROFANITY 6 - 9 F-words (one is not totally pronounced), several
scatological terms, a few anatomical terms and several other profanities and insults. [profanity glossary]
DISCUSSION TOPICS - The military and stupid military decisions, bringing the dead
back to life, zombiefied super-soldiers, the loss of a parent, computers going haywire.
MESSAGES - You can't -- and mustn't -- trust computers. They can
malfunction and decide to destroy the human race.
