Arnold Schwarzenegger returns to the screen in this
silly but entertaining action picture that plays like an overblown,
contemporary, Rio Bravo-style western. While the narrative logic is
flimsy, and Arnold is a totally ridiculous choice for the part of small town
Arizona sheriff, the result is a sufficiently satisfying picture with just
enough pace, humor, and visual style to deliver the goods as a comeback picture
for the former “Governator”. The fact that Schwarzenegger is older, slower and
creakier doesn’t hinder the film one bit--it actually gives it character.
