Review of Split Second

Split Second (1992)
8/10
Fun 90s movie
26 August 2020
How did I not see this until now? A crazy movie that is far out (to use a saying that may still mean something or not). Lots of blood, a splash of nudity here and there and a buddy cop story that is borderline insane. So is the character that Rutger Hauer portrays of course, but we wouldn't like it any other way.

Really good effects (for the time), a social message (with some eco thinking), but more importantly just a lot of fun. Who in their right minds would start making out while in the middle of fighting the big bad evil of the movie? Well if you guessed it, there are not extra points. Now this is tongue in cheek and very self aware ("I thought I saw a rat" is probably the best/worst excuse for total destruction). There's still a chance this won't tickle you or get you in the right mood. It doesn't mean anything more than this not being your cup of tea. Try to take this for what it is though and it may bring you a lot of joy ... lots of it! Maybe even more than blood being spilled here ...
