Great review. I remember passing afternoon summers away at random relatives ' homes watching films like this. They'll always be something fun for the moment.
Oh my god, had this on VHS back in the day. Haven’t watched it in years, totally forgot about it till this video. Don’t remember anything about it but I know I use to watch it all the time back then.
SUDDEN DEATH is the hockey movie. HARD TARGET is John Woo. DOUBLE IMPACT was the twins movie I think. I think him not caring about the dog was to indicate that he had become less human.
Time Cop was pretty good for JCVD. My useless fact of the day. Cyborg recycled costumes from the Masters of the Universe movie. The main villain is just wearing Blade's chainmail.
I swear I saw these sets somewhere. Like the factory where they first fight reminds me of the Running man with Schawrzeneger, his work place I guess, or where they kept him? Also the var at 14:27 looks to me like a place where Kim Basinger ends up in one action movie, can't remember which.
Excllent review, i still have such a softspot for this film I bought the box set off amazon like 3 years ago and no i still haven't watched the other 3.
First one again!👊 Thanx for the review guys! 👍 I remeber this movie.. Olivier Gruner, was , an actor I really did like, but had a couple of movies that was really bad.... he trired to be the new JCVD, b ut never got the same famous stardom...
I think Cyborg is a better movie than the bigger budgeted Universal Soldier. Nemesis is a fantastic low budget cyberpunk film - it reminds me of the old Syndicate games. Now watch American Cyborg Steel warrior. And Ian - Nemesis is on blu ray.
I saw this film for the first time this year. I have a soft spot for Albert Pyun. Cyborg is a good laugh, and Radioactive Dreams might be one of the most low-key influential films ever made. But this movie wasn't very good. As the lads say in the review, it's overly complicated and Olivier Gruner - while clearly good at the physical stuff - is a plank of wood. But know what? I'm glad I watched it. The reason I like Pyun, despite the quality of most of his work, is that I feel a pure sense of abandon with his work. It makes me think of all the scribbles for movies I came up with as a kid, and then would play them out with my toys. It's an energy I miss. But yeah this film is rubbish. Dare you to review Nemesis 2!
They tried to make Olivier Gruner the next Van Damme, and the movies he was in were "good" for the most part but like JCVD, he had the martial arts skills but could not really act.
I liked this film. Of course the special effects are not like in a 100 million dollar film, the acting is hammy quite often, but it has an appeal (also due to the main actor)which fascinated me.
Thanks for the review & comic relief. I never seen this one although I have heard of it oddity. Appreciate you for falling on the grenade & watching this hot mess so I don't have too. Good looking out 👍. Perhaps the next stop is MST3K / Rifftrax.
THAT'S INSANE! What is all these well known actors doing in this movie!?! The movie does sound interesting and having these actors, but wow! Somehow it didn't work. Maybe for a good laugh, I can will see it. Good video you guys! Much love!!
As I work here in my shop in the Pacific northwest, I'm applying my trade as a carpenter, when the alert goes off telling me that Ian and Gary have released another awesome video!!! Thank you Off The Shelf Reviews!!! Best movie review channel on TH-cam!!!
3:44 As a JCVD fan that hurt my soul. Hard Target, not Sudden Death guys. 3:54 Yes Angelina Jolie was in Cyborg 2. No it's not worth seeking. Barely worth a watch even if it's already playing. 37:02 5. There are 5. I've watched this entire series. Just gets worse. The only one I've watched more than once is 4 only because I was a horny teen at one point.
On paper that should have looked like a good movie, it has cool ideas and scenes, but maybe it needed a different director and writer, I think is for me one of those so bad is good movies
Hey Ian and garry merry christmas and happy new year for you too i love your Chanel i dont remember this movie as kid cyborg with van Damme i dont like it e prefere outher van Damme movies the movie you mentioned is hard target whit lance Henriksen
The grin and subtle head shake by Iain at the end was perfect! Great review fellas.
Great review. I remember passing afternoon summers away at random relatives ' homes watching films like this. They'll always be something fun for the moment.
26:00 That kinda shoot the floor thing is also in the 5th Element, when Corbin Dallas shoots around Ruby Rhod! hahahaha
7:10 The poster. But she looks cool. That is the philosophy in the making of this film. "Gary" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
That one guy is nuts. Nemesis rules!
You've got two of my favourites here from Cherry 2000. Tim Thomerson & Brion James. 🤖
Oooooh, can't go wrong with a Cary Hiroyuki Tagawa flick.
He's the man.
Love ya lads! Cant wait for the Podcast! Well done once again! This was unexpected! Cant wait for Amercan History X 👊.
Oh my god, had this on VHS back in the day. Haven’t watched it in years, totally forgot about it till this video. Don’t remember anything about it but I know I use to watch it all the time back then.
Loved the poster for this movie when I was young 😂
SUDDEN DEATH is the hockey movie. HARD TARGET is John Woo. DOUBLE IMPACT was the twins movie I think. I think him not caring about the dog was to indicate that he had become less human.
That cast! Another one I saw the poster at the video store, but I was too young to rent it. Was always curious!
Time Cop was pretty good for JCVD. My useless fact of the day. Cyborg recycled costumes from the Masters of the Universe movie. The main villain is just wearing Blade's chainmail.
Hard Target fellas, not Sudden Death.

The Van Dam/ Henrickson film was Hard Target.
Excllent review, i still have such a softspot for this film I bought the box set off amazon like 3 years ago and no i still haven't watched the other 3.
I love this movie! You guys are being unfair haha
"Why is this movie so shit with this lineup!?" lmfao!

Thanks, Iain. Thanks, Garold. I hope you have the loveliest holidays. And the other guy too that my message gets erased every time I try to mention.
I think Cyborg is a better movie than the bigger budgeted Universal Soldier.

Now watch American Cyborg Steel warrior.
And Ian - Nemesis is on blu ray.
I always think of Dark Corners, talking of the SEXY, SEXY CYBORGS in this movie 😂! Another review of this movie worth watching!
Hey guys don't tread on this movie I love the film man.
Mind you he did have a scope on his pistol in the clip you showed for the accuracy.
