the vindicator open with the memorable scene of a monkey in a cage attack a rip apart a small toy robot a part of a scientific experiment . this random act violence sell it for me and i be happy to say the rest of vindicator provide a veritable feast of cheese . the vindicator be about a scientist ( david mcilwraith ) who be nearly kill an explosion in his lab whose tattered remains be put inside an experimental body suit or armour . for some unfathomable reason he be fit with a rage response activator and a device wire into his brain that will turn him homicidal if he come into physical contact with any other person . they give some daft explanation about how it be a necessary defensive mechanism but i can not see the logic in instal such a device unless you want a rampage cyborg kill machine . it be especially ridiculous when it be indicate the suit carl be wear be actually an experimental space suit . what possible need would there be for an astronaut to turn into the incredible hulk whilst on a mission . he predictably break out of the lab and proceeds to battle the dodgy scientist who put him in the suit and along with the ninja assassin hunter play by pam grier ( no and really ) . the vindicator itself look pretty damn goofy . it be basically a dude in a mangled golden foil suit . he also have a perpetually bewilder look in his eye and that doesn not inspire fear or even compassion . i guess you can not blame him for that and most people watch the movie will have that same look on their face . the acting be of the really bad and stilted and i be not sure what the character emotion or thought be that this point so i will take a punt and spurt out my dialogue in a random tone of voice whilst try not look at the camera school of act . the actor play the funky black scientist even struggle with this last part . it be after this initial accidental death that the vindicator go after the scientist . strangely enough the whole rage response activator touch me and i will kill you thing doesn not play as big a role a you might expect with carl go after his former college in a reasonably detached manner . there be one scene where he rather brutally kill some street punk who push him around . i know that it be de rigueur for street gang to randomly assault the lead character in eighty movie but surely one of them must have realise it might be a bad idea to attack the hulking cyborg guy even if he do look like c3po retard cousin . a it be they do not even seem that surprise to see a mangled golden cyborg walk down the street a though it be an every day occurrence for them . the only other time this rage response activator come up in the movie be when old carl can not give his wife a hug . when hunter try to turn this against him by throw her into him so he will be force to kill her he casually remark he have reprogrammed himself ( off screen naturally ) so this doesn not happen . they could have leave out the whole rage response activator thing and just go with a straight revenge story and it wouldn not have make a huge difference to the movie . there be an amuse sequence in the sewer a grier and her crony track down the vindicator . due to his armour hide they be all arm with weapon which fire vapourised acid . for some bizarre reason when these weapon fire it be represent on screen by cartoonish red line that streak toward their target ala ghostbusters . the vindicator fight back by rip a gas pipe out of the wall and incinerate all of grier goon in an enormous streak of flame that come out . the result fireball be so huge and powerful that it come out of the sewer out of a man hole and blow up the van a couple of the scientist be . strangely enough grier escape by throw herself down into the inch deep water despite the fact she be close to the vindicator . this be one of several fake fiery explosion throughout the movie and include the death of funky black scientist when the vindicator send his van of a cliff . ( this be after they capture the vindicator by trap him in a giant lump of gello no and seriously ) . there be also one unsettling and long and out of place sequence in which carl treacherous overweight friend and who look like a poor man ned beatty and reveal his infatuation with carl wife and try to rape her . it go on for about 5 10 minute and be full of disturb shot of the guy slobbering over the wife face and gyrate on top of her and try to pull her dress off . it be icky to say the least and seem really out of whack with most of the rest of the movie which be kind of cartoonish and large than life in it violence . the movie finale involve the vindicator battle a whole bunch of other dude in battle suit . for whatever reason all these other dude be less kick arse than carl and some of them be dispatch by the wife simply by have a protrude tube in their side rip out . luckily for carl the suit he be wear lacks this crucial design flaw . the only really memorable part toward the end be the death of grier . do something i have never see a baddie do in a movie before and in the middle of her confrontation with the vindicator she decide she really doesn not stand a chance against him and in a rather of matter of fact manner blow her own brain out with his pistol .
