if you love the 1993 ( erotic and sci fiction ) cyborg film nemesis and then you will love this one . i love it the minute the elvis pompadour hero pull out a samurai sword during a shoot out . like nemesis it take place in a post apocalyptic slum of the future . both be police thriller where the well arm hero must take on well arm rebel and to solve a conspiracy by the power that be against the unwashed mass . but thats where the similarity end . the ambiguous mayor in dead or alive try to keep the mass sedate on the drug he sell them . the rebel aid by mercenary and a cyborg and try to brake his suffocate hold on his subject . after several fail attempt to brake the rebel back and he send his top cop to assassinate the rebel . this movie follow the track of most action adventure but isn not afraid to color outside the line .
