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

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

A potent comic-book-style action-adventure.

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.

Wow. What a terrible movie.

Disappointing.

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

Despite being hampered by second-rate special effects and too many action film cliches, Soldier does have its fun parts.
December 08, 2002
There's too little character development and no reason to care.
July 21, 2005
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.

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