Plot: Rutger Hauer and Kim Cattrall star in this festival of stolen plots and embarrassing dialogue. Harley Stone (Hauer) is a tough cop. The kind of cop who lives by his own rules. The kind of cop who smok...( read more read more... )es, swears, and eats junk food. The kind of cop who slams people into walls to drive home a conversational point. If it sounds like you've seen this character before, you have. Split Second is not so much a movie as a cinematic crib sheet, cheerfully ripping off Jaws, Aliens, and Hauer's own Blade Runner, just to name a few. Which is not for a moment to suggest that the movie isn't fun to watch. Connoisseurs of horror-action also-rans will be in spasms of delight over everything from the ludicrous plot to the cookie-cutter dialogue ("They say he's the best." "He is.") to the incredibly misguided decision to have Stone eat chocolate truffles throughout the entire film. It is honestly sometimes hard to tell what is an intentional joke and what's just plain bad. Anyway, there's a serial killer rampaging through London in 2008 and Stone doesn't want a new partner, especially one with all that book learning and blah, blah, blah. Just turn your brain off and enjoy the magic. --Ali Davis

    This sci-fi thriller is an average rip-off of the visuals of Blade Runner and the story line of Predator.

    For a movie made in 1992, it really hit the nail on the head about 2008...except for the uber=strong rat-beast/humanoid thing...Its a damn good effort from Rutger Hauer To be a bad ass. He's a bit like Anthony Stewart Head from the Buffy series, but you know, a bad ass. Look, I don't feel like explaining it fully, but damn it, a mutant totally rips out peoples hearts and eats them. What the hell else do you need to know? If you can get a copy(its in the Moritorium so good luck) do so, because its bad sci-fi at its semi-best.

    In a futuristic London, the rising sea levels mean that large areas are under feet of water. Hauer plays a cop who previously lost his partner to some strange creature. Now the creature is back and its after him.

    Cliche and predictable, yet more fun than any recent hollywood monster. Cattrall was looking good in those days, and Hauer was the guy for this type of roles.

    This was one of those good, campy action films filled with quirky characters and one liners that will make you groan, but stay with you for a very long time.
