Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
It's just another martial arts film, all dressed up with no place to go.
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.
