Overheard at the pitch meeting: "So what if The Terminator was like, um... a sexy lady in a red leather get-up?" "Sold!"

'So this device of yours is horny as well as psychopathic?' asks Gregory Hines, cast as a military badass so self-assured he's nicknamed himself 'God.'

Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)
Gregory Hines as a cyborg hunter? The casting couldn't be more perfect if Ben Vereen were cast as the lead in Terminator 5.

J.C. Maçek III
PopMatters
For whatever flaws it contains - and there are many - the film now seems like an intriguingly eccentric little genre effort that marches to the beat of its own weird drummer.

Disappointing Terminator rip-off. Not enough chase, not enough destruction.

The movie that introduced Gregory Hines as an action star. ("Running Scared" was a comedy!)

Unstoppable! Renee Soutendijk is sexy and lethal as a sophisticated and deadly android run amok in this sci-fi thriller.
