Review of Split Second

Split Second (1992)
3/10
Cliched, stereotype-ridden junk.

We lasted about 25 minutes before we turned it off. What a collection of comic-book tough-guys (Hauer) and world-weary coppers (Armstrong). The acting was absolutely terrible, almost as if they were reading their lines straight off the page. As for the appearance and direction of the film, it reminded me of a cross between an 80's pop video and and one of those 'Comic Strip Presents' productions such as 'The Bullshitters'. I did entertain the thought that this film may be a spoof of stuff like The Professionals and that the bad acting was deliberate, but somehow I don't think so - it was too bad even for that.
