Film Review - Demolition Man (1993)


Demolition Man stars Sylvester Stallone as Los Angeles Cop John Spartan who after the death of innocent people is sentenced to cyro-freeze and awakens in the year 2032, where the world has become a nanny state led by Nigel Hawthorne and his enemy is Simon Phoenix played by Wesley Snipes.

The first half of the film is terrific, blending action and comedy very well, each of the main cast handle themselves well even Stallone, the humour had me in stitches especially the references to Armour Hot Dogs and the Verbal Morality Stature that hands out fines to anyone who swares or says something bad, if I have a complaint though is that the film goes for all out action in the second half, which doesn't work very well.

As for my rating, well Simon says 2 and a half out of 5.
