The Stabilizer

[lester1/2jr]

       I was shocked at home awesome this was.  I've seen a couple of indonesian things now including Lady Terminator and the devils sword and they've all been pretty strong.


    of course, this has infamously bad dubbing and the indonesians weren't to great with...filmaking but they put their heart into it and you always end up with something pretty darn entertaining.  One bit of criticism:  I'e detected a patern of letting fights and action sequences go on way too long.  worse things can happen, but it can get tedious.

        here's a typical moment:  a guy drops his gun, the other guy holds his up and snalrs "drop it!".  yep.

   i happen to have watched this right after charles bronson's "violent city" and I have to say this one won me over by far.  none of the navel gazing and inner searching murkiness, just straight action.


   again, some of the action sequences go on far too long,  namely the last 20 minutes of the movie.
