Trivia
The film is based upon the Dark Horse comic book series of the same name.

Goofs
In the beginning of the movie when George Spota is talking to the senate committee he states that an arms deal was being paid for by gold bullion from the civil war. He states that this coin was carbon dated back to that time. This cannot be so for two reasons. One if it was brought forward in time it would not have had a chance to age. But even more so is that you cannot carbon date metals. Carbon dating can only be used for organic matter, material that was once living.

Quotes
McComb: Never interrupt me when I'm talking to myself.

Crazy credits
On the trailers, the 1936 Universal Pictures "Art-Deco Globe" logo is used. the actual film meanwhile had the 1991 logo played normally.

Alternate versions
The film was initially censored to receive a more commercially viable M rating for its theatrical release in Australia. The sex scene between Van Damme and Mia Sara was slightly cut and the final confrontation between Van Damme and one of Ron Silver's heavies where Van Damme repeatedly pistol whips the villain was censored to one hit. These cuts were restored for the MA VHS and DVD release.

Entertaining nonsense

Overall, this is a decent enough 90s action flick with ropey acting, terrible vision of the future, but excellent fight scenes and some superb signs of physical excellence (those gymnast moves are amazing). Its also funny (not always intentionally so; those cars are hilarious) and the pacing is decent. The sci-fi angle is not the strongest, but overall this is a cent 90s action flick.
