This movie is about as exciting as watching sand shift

I recently had the pleasure of watching this movie at a friend's house and let me tell you, it sucks major cock. Rutger Hauer's filmography is like an avalanche. Start out with something decent like "BladeRunner" and then roughly ten years later star in a cut and paste mess known as "Beyond Justice". Of course the movie should be called "Beyond Saving" because let's face it, if you sit through this crap you're brain dead. Me and my buddy managed to get through about 57 minutes, and then once we realized we didn't have the damnedest idea what was going on, we fast-forwarded to the last 11 minutes where in the aftermath of a huge shootout the previous hunter/hunted characters had come together in an effort to fight a larger enemy. I was able to extrapolate the entire plot from the last hour without having watched it. And just a quick aside on the box art for the DVD: Putting the heads of all the characters and adding swirlies all around them makes it look like a collection of Twilight Zone episodes.

Anyhow, I'm going to go out on a limb here and say anyone who picks up the box and looks at the DVD case is probably going to leave with about as much understanding of the film as I did, and I actually watched most of it. So do yourself and track down every copy and burn it in a pyre that we can all dance around like magic wood nymphs.
