Dark Angel (1990)
6/10
An entertaining B movie
29 June 2011
"Dark Angel" is an entertaining B movie that never takes itself too seriously. The plot revolves around an alien outlaw (Matthias Hues) that comes to Earth in order to supply himself with a rare drug. Tough cop Jack Caine (Dolph Lundgren) finds out about his plans and it's up to him and an FBI agent to put an end to the alien's actions.

While this is not the most original of movies, it is still very enjoyable. The dialogue is filled with funny one liners and there are plenty of action scenes that compensate for the inferior production values. The acting is also what you would expect from a B movie. The film may seem silly at times, but it also has some cool elements that make it entertaining.

This is one of Dolph Lundgren's best movies and his fans will not be disappointed because he is in good form here. In spite of all its flaws, "Dark Angel" is a decent action flick that is a lot of fun to watch and I highly recommend it if you are into 80's action movies.

My rating: 6/10
