Whilst the plot is very formulaic, Stone Cold is still really good fun. Brian Bosworth gives a really good lead performance and proves he is a very capable action star. Lance Henriksen is great as the villain. Its well paced and builds effectively to a satisfying, over the top and action packed third act. It's well filmed and Craig R. Baxley's direction is good. The music by Sylvester Levay is also good.

Think "Commando" with bikers, all of the misdirected machismo from "Road House", and every other action movie trope you can think of, all nicely sliced and diced together. That is "Stone Cold". It never tries to be more than what it is. It has a simple setup far as story goes, decent action, it's well shot, has fast pacing, and pretty solid acting all around.It's an early 90's movie about a cop going undercover to catch a biker gang, what more are you expecting out of this?Enjoy!

I just saw this in a retro showing, and it's really one of those films that you shouldn't enjoy. It came out at the tailend of the muscles action era which was at its height in the 80s.We don't need to bother about the storyline. Our badass hero has not any acting skills and is out to bring down a biker gang from hell. Lots of explosions, lots of female exploitation and sexism, bad one liners and terrible dress sense, yet it's so much fun. It's so wrong but you can't help but go along for the ride.As a throw back, it's fun and downright silly escapism. Granted I was finding the sexism too much at times, but apart from that it's a fun night's viewing. Give it a whirl.
