Lolzz😂. this movie in every respect should have gotten at least a 75. especially with today's society (it takes place last year and it ironically isn't too far from the truth). most of the negative reviews revolve around the whole "macho man" theme of Schwarzenegger which isn't really present. in fact Arnold is the underdog he isn't John Matrix in this movie and his kill count is lower than his usual in his movies. Arnold plays a man named Ben Richards who was framed for police brutality when he refused to kill unarmed civilians and is forced to play a death game to survive. the scenarios are similar but the new powers of each stalker are different and have more interesting ways to try and kill the hero. it still has a lot of the action cliche's of the 1980's but that's okay because it is a 1980's action movie and those cliche's are still entertaining. on the outside it's a dumb action movie but in retrospective it's an anti-establishment feature. my only regret is that Arnold's acting is even worse than usual but it is still a fun movie that i would recommend to anyone.
