New York Times

Mr. Van Damme's Gibson is so opaque that he makes Mel Gibson's Mad Max seem weepy by comparison.

Chicago Sun-Times

Few genres amuse me more than post-apocalyptic fantasies about supermen fighting for survival. Cyborg is one of the funniest examples of this category, which crosses Escape from New York with The Road Warrior but cheats on the budget.

Rated: 1/4

It's just another martial arts film, all dressed up with no place to go.

Film Frenzy

It never distinguishes itself as anything but another Mad Max wannabe, although its minor success did lead to two straight-to-video sequels (the first with an 18-year-old Angelina Jolie, the second with OJ Simpson's freeloading houseguest Kato Kaelin).

Rated: 2/4

Film Threat

I loved all the fake gore. Plenty of decapitated heads on a pole and bodies swinging off chains. Kill or be killed.

Rated: 6.5/10

Gone With The Twins

Ironically enough, the most believable cyborg is Van Damme ... in his role as a human.

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajudou a melhorar o filme nem o van damme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom.

I get why this is rotten by professional standards, but the popcorn meter should be really high. Despite the plot holes, and the low budget, its incredibly fun to watch. Or maybe because I'm a Gen-Xer?

Very much in Albert Pyun’s wheelhouse and the last of Van Damme movies with Cannon. It’s very standard sci-fi and very low budget but it’s not unwatchable

I have to admit, I was a kid in the 80s and this one's a nostalgic guilty pleasure for me. I actually like the atmosphere of it as well as the soundtrack. Yes, it's pretty ridiculous but they don't make 'em like this anymore! Also, the blind bad guy boss figure is pretty terrifying... at least when I was a kid.

A Cannon Films/ Van Damme cult classic channeling Mad Max and featuring some killer action beats, including one that starts 36 minutes in and doesn’t culminate until the 56 minute mark following a foot chase that’s a classic for those of us who grew up with this film. Plus the central villain used to give me nightmares as a kid! Based on his visual stylings alone, Fender is up there with the best of the Bads in my book! Low budget, martial arts fun with a post-apocalyptic paint job and Jean Claude doing what he does best!

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars
