Pretty good early 90's-esque action movie...
2 September 2003 | by (LA, USA) – See all my reviews

Army of One proves to be an acceptable film for fans of the genre, and a great "not to miss" film for fans of Dolph Lundgren. Entertaining "fugitive on the run or chase" movie with a solid cast and nice directing.......which fortunately makes up for the sometimes incoherent editing and the real bad score.. (apart from the title theme, which is nice)...with a mix of innovative to standard action sequences. Go ahead and enjoy this one.
