Swayze, as the elite soldier, Nomad, who wanders the world, doing right.  Why are these people always reliant upon swords and crossbows? 

It has been a while since I watched this one, but I remember the weird wind buggy's, the stylized sword and fighting moves of the two soldiers, and also that the one woman, Kasha I think, had been married to another soldier.  Seems that she is hogging all the elite swordsman action in the desert valley.

The battle between the two soldiers was funny, in that Sho seemed to be better than Nomad if memory serves.  I think that the corrupted soldier also remarks that Nomad is rusty or out of practice when they clash for that first time.  I felt sorry for Tark, because he is completely outclassed as a fighter by the two soldiers, despite his large size.  Guess that is why they played the card that Tark felt worthless.  It works, but I am not certain the story helped it work.  More like, with the setup they provide, that has to be the case.

How did Sho keep his hair like that?  He must have found a variety of cactus that leaked a hair-setting fluid and could also be used to flare out one's hair.  Of course, Nomad had also discovered a tortoise with fabulous hair oil in its kidneys.

I'm avoiding reading the review (I did browse the images), because this is a movie I would like to review in the next year or so.
