Eraser: Reborn
16 May 2022
A reboot/remake of the 1996 Arnold Schwarzenegger movie.

This is a low budget, straight pay tv action movie shot in South Africa.

US Marshall Mason Pollard (Dominic Sherwood) is the Eraser. He fakes witnesses deaths and puts them into hiding with new identities.

His latest assignment is to protect Rina Kimura who reluctantly turns informer against her later gangster husband.

Mason takes Rina into hiding in South Africa. However the mob has sent some assassins. Mason finds out that there are also dirty US Marshalls who want to kill Rina.

Dominic Sherwood lacks the presence, charisma and physicality of Schwarzenegger. Even his attempt at humour is misfired.

The 1996 movie had some dodgy CGI regarding the crocodile scenes. This one made over 25 years later has worse CGI.

It is basically a cheapy copy made for Warner Brothers streaming service.
