The Worst Film Ever

It's funny watching the elements come together in this complicated scam. On one hand, the set-up isn't quite as complex as it seems, but there's an easy sense of fun in every exchange.

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

The acting in this movie is really good.

Wow. I have never seen a movie about an alien who says he 'comes in peace' but really doesn't cause every person he meets he shoots up with heroin then extracts the resulting dopamine which is some kind of super-heroin for his race which, despite having perfected interstellar travel and little CDs that home in on people and cut their heads off, cannot seem to recreate such a drug.Oh well! But then, I suppose if they could we wouldn't have got this awesome movie!Dolph Lundgren IS the character he plays, whatever his name is.The alien dude IS the alien dude.Plus Dolph gets this big gun from ANOTHER alien, who is a good guy and like an alien cop or something cause he's chasing the bad alien.And the thing Dolph says when he kills the bad alien at the end is the best thing ever written oh my god in hell.16/08

For a Dolph Lundgren fan like me is I Come in Peace aka...Dark Angel (1990) Dolph's best action science fiction bad-ass flick! I grew up watching this film as a kid when I was 9. years old. Recently re watching this flick online Is still love it today. However, neither DVD nor Blu-ray disk for this film has been released in my country. I can't get it so I have downloaded from net. Dolph Lundgren did a lot of direct to video action movies that I haven't seen them yet, but I Come in Peace and Showdown in Little Tokyo are his best films he ever worked on them. I love this flick to death, I love it, it is my number 1 favorite film of Dolph Lundgren that I can always enjoy. I absolutely enjoy Jan Hammer music theme score, I absolutely love the soundtrack for this film Touch Me Tonight by Shooting Star I have a blast watching this bad-ass flick from the 90's.I come in peace...And you go in pieces, asshole! The title of the film I Come In Peace was released in the United States and it was released as Dark Angel in other territories including Europe. This flick was released in 1990 the same year the following flicks were released that year those are: Predator 2, Marked for Death and Total Recall, from Danny Glover, Steven Seagal and Arnold Schwarzenegger. I saw the trailer of Dark Angel on VHS tape- Total Recall when I was watching it and I absolutely loved this flick, it was my wish to see this movie. 1st science fiction film from 1990 about criminals being picked off by an extra terrestrial, which the main character, a policeman's partner is also killed, with "Predator 2" (which was produced months later). I Come In Peace and Predator 2 are actually similar movies but if I would had to choose between those two films I would definitely pick Predator 2 over this. Why? because Danny Glover is more bad ass than Dolph Lundgren is in here and Predator is more evil brilliant cruel villain than Bad Alien (Matthias Hues) is.Plot: Dolph Lundgren as Jack Caine, a Houston police detective who teams with an ambitious FBI agent when they discover the killer they are chasing is an alien who has come to Earth to extract chemicals from humans in order to produce a powerful drug.This action flick is about an alien drug lord that has arrived on earth, humans represent ideal drug factories of our endorphin's. To detective Jack Cain (Dolph Lundgren) the alien represents mankind's worst threat. If the alien's mission succeeds, our planet will be destroyed. Together with his straight-arrow FBI partner (Brian Benben) and his girlfriend, the city coroner (Betsy Brantley), Cain is going to send this alien home in pieces! I Come in Peace is not only a sci-fi action flick it is also a horror flick, like how Bad Alien is killing people to get endorphin's to creating a powerful drug. He throws disc killing criminals and he even thrusts a wire into people's chest killing them. He takes a knife out of his hand and he stabs people in the head, the one he feed on.There are a lot of scenes that I love in this film: small-time crooks enter a liquor store to rob it, Jack uses his martial art skill on one of the robbers, he shots the other in the head. Jack enters Warren bad guy's building him self, he uses his martial arts beating some bad guys. Jack kick's bad alien onto a broken tube. The car chase with a stolen police car is awesome and a bad-ass! Matthias Hues did an outstanding performance as the bad guy, I heard he is a really nice guy in real life, unlike his characters he was playing. I also love Brian Benben as Agent Smith FBI, he is such an underrated actor I wish he would be in more action films this days. Special Agent Smith (Brian Benben) pulls out what appears to be a customized Dan Wesson VH-15 fitted with a scope brilliant!Overall: I am giving a 10 to this flick, I only have a problem that Jack has a girlfriend in this film and a second partner helping him battle bad alien. Jack doesn't need sidekicks that is way I love Predator 2 more than I Come in peace.

Plot: Dolph Lundgren stars as maverick cop Jack Caine, who's teamed with an FBI agent (Brian Benben) to stop an alien who kills humans to feed off their endorphins.First off, I think the title on IMDb should be I Come In Peace because that's what it's called in America not Dark Angel. Anyway, this is my favorite Dolph Lundgren film, from the spectacular action from only a 4-5 million dollar budget that's amazing to me more than the 100 million dollar films of these days. Dolph gives his best performance in this film looking like he is having fun with his role. The supporting cast also does a good job especially the villain who is believable as an alien drug dealer. This is what I want in action films, fun action, fun characters, and having a sense of humor about itself. The Motivation of the villain is interesting and different which is better than rehashing the same cliché that the villain wants to take over the world.I Come In Peace is a fun action film that doesn't deserve the hate that it gets, this is what action films should be like not deadly serious pictures who try to force a political message down your throat. If you ever find this film, please watch it you won't regret it.

Effective B movie puts an ingenious spin on your standard issue buddy-cop movie. Dolph Lundgren (looking quite good in dark hair) is your typical maverick movie detective, a man named Jack Caine who's trying to bring down a criminal empire. Throwing things seriously askew is the arrival of a great big bad ass alien (Matthias Hues) with long blonde hair who does interesting things to people. His race is addicted to the drug otherwise known as human endorphins, so he extracts them from unwilling donors, after first shooting the people full of heroin. Caine, naturally, will stop at nothing to figure out what the hell is going on, and put an end to things, while sometimes being hindered and sometimes being helped by his unwanted new partner, FBI agent Arwood Smith (Brian Benben, who's engaging as always). Smith, as you can easily imagine, is a stickler for procedure, unlike the more instinctual Caine. Lundgren, who's fun to watch no matter how clichéd his part may be, and Benben get good odd couple chemistry going throughout this energetic movie, very well directed by stunt expert Craig R. Baxley, who'd previously done the Carl Weathers vehicle "Action Jackson". Betsy Brantley is appealing as Caine's coroner girlfriend, and a capable supporting cast full of familiar faces makes this highly agreeable viewing: Jim Haynie as Caine's boss, Sherman Howard (a.k.a. Bub The Zombie from "Day of the Dead") as smooth criminal Victor Manning, Sam Anderson as Manning's smarmy associate, Michael J. Pollard as goofy lowlife "Boner", Jesse Vint as early victim McMurphy, and Al Leong as a "luggage salesman". Mark Lowenthal contributes a memorable dose of comedy relief as an antsy scientist. This is speedy stuff, with decent makeup effects, a little bit of gore, and enough explosions to keep this from ever getting boring. As escapism goes, one could definitely do a lot worse than this. It would be hard to knock any movie where the villain's arsenal includes deadly flying CD's. While some of this is plenty predictable (such as the girlfriend getting fed up with our hero's unreliability), it's still good entertainment that gets off to a great start and ends with a big bang. The score by Jan Hammer of 'Miami Vice' fame is another strong asset. Worth a look for action fans. Eight out of 10.
