Full review
One of Van Damme's first films and he will be glad that it was. At least he hadn't gotten much of a following at that point. If he had, it would have destroyed his career!

The plot is almost non-existent, set in post-apocalyptic future with a disease ravaging the American nation...scientists are close to the cure and Gibson (Van Damme) is en route to help spur them on.

The action isn't too bad, but as always in these films you get the whole Van Damme kicking the living hell out of people with ease to come up against a dumb opponent at the end where he nearly loses just to put up a spirited fight back at the end to claim the victory....cliched to the hilt.

I wouldn't recommend it unless you are a Van Damme follower who has yet to see this film.
