Kurt Russell hits new heights in laconic action heroes with his portrayal of Sergeant Todd, born and bred to be a soldier in a futuristic army. Raised to kill mercilessly, living only for battle, he finds himself at the twilight of his career (and so-called life) when a regiment of genetically enhanced warriors threatens to make his brand of soldiering obsolete. Despite his extensive skills, he is no match for the best of breed of the new order, and he's left for dead on a planet that serves only as a junk heap. There he encounters a ragtag group of castaways, and in his own strange and silent way slowly begins to learn how to be less a killer and more a human. All is disrupted, though, when the genetic regiment arrives on the trash planet and decides to eradicate the local human "trespassers." Though Todd had been overmatched before, this time he has more than ever to fight for--a home, and friends. Soldier is one of those rare sci fi movies that relies more on plot and action than special effects (though the trash planet is effectively wrought). The pace of action in the last half of the film is relentless and exciting, and Russell's portrayal of the old warrior as he warms to human emotions relies more on expression than words--in fact, he barely utters more than a half-dozen lines. --Tod Nelson

When I saw this film in a theater I was shocked to hear such negative reviews about it.I feel this is one of Kurt Russell best films. To all those who want a high brow movie to watch and how are high brows themselves. Please don't watch. To all the rest of us who like something in the vein of Blade Runner and who judge films we are not afraid to say we like..This is the one.

This movie was very good with lots of action, good plot and characters. My husband has been looking for this for a while and couldn't find it locally. He was pleasantly surprised when he found this present under the tree this Christmas. I would recommend this to anyone who enjoys action/adventure films.Soldier

The plot on this action flick is pretty much disposable, and merely serves to set up some great scenes of carnage. Following the development of Kurt Russell as a baby to adult to outdated Solider, this movie is liberally dusted with action. Everything though, is merely setting the stage for the requisite end of movie battle royale that pits Russell against a company of newer, supposedly better Soldiers. Showing that experience in killing is better than just being trained to kill, Russell of course ... Read More

The Bottom Line:
Soldier, a "side-quel" to Blade Runner that should in no way be considered in the same league with that far more visually inventive film, has nothing to recommend it aside from a cool fight scene fought on chains suspended from the ceiling (imagine climbing the rope in gym class...then ripping out the eye of the guy climbing on the adjacent rope) and the fact that it moves reasonably quickly and could be a lot worse; don't look for anything approaching creativity and you ...

I found the plot of this movie to be deeply disturbing in a way that stays with you. With only a slight change of scenery from outer space to mujarhadeens inducting little boys in Pakistan (especially as this movie was made long before 9/11) you've got the all-too-real ethical question of how far should society go to further it's interests and protect itself? Sgt. Todd, though he utters barely 25 words in the entire movie, skillfully represents what happens when the perfect trained killer is suddenly ... Read More
