There's only so much scampering around in the woods (like a second-rate Rambo) that viewers can take, especially when nameless henchmen are the opposition.

Gone With The Twins
A nasty formula action film about a drug smuggling scheme in the Pacific Northwest.

For all its woefully generic trappings, outlandishly ineffectual music, and cardboard-flavored dialogue, Quiet Cool does offer an appreciable amount of mayhem for your rental dollar.

Scott Weinberg
DVDTalk.com
A formulaic '80s action cheapie full of bad acting, trite dialogue and by-the-numbers action.

Audience Reviews for Quiet Cool

Jul 23, 2008

Under rated 80's action film.

James Remar! This movie's title fits it perfectly. I remember seeing Remar do outstanding work in Walter Hill's films, Drugstore Cowboy and Tales From the Darkside: The Movie, and being saddened that he seemed to disappear from films for a while. Thank God though for Cable TV, I've been watching him in Dexter and boy the man can act. Why is it that HBO and Showtime are making more interesting, deep and artistic TV shows than Hollywood can make movies? Well, if you want to see James Remar, Powers Boothe or any other cool character actors of the past, it seems cable TV now has the best actors as well.... oh yeah, the movie! It's a heck a lot of fun and blah, blah, blah. If you dig tough guy action films, you'll probably dig this one. Yaaay James Remar.
