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

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.

Wow. What a terrible movie.

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

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.

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

Despite being hampered by second-rate special effects and too many action film cliches, Soldier does have its fun parts.

There's too little character development and no reason to care.

Has there ever been a more insipid sci-fi action film than Soldier? Probably, although it's hard to imagine.

Disappointing.

A potent comic-book-style action-adventure.
