Soldier
Instrueret af Paul W. S. Anderson
I en ikke så fjern fremtid bliver morgendagens soldater udvalgt ved fødslen. Gennem et helt liv optrænes de med det ene mål for øje: At gøre dem til nådesløse dræbermaskiner. Sergent Todd er en af disse soldater, som længe har været forrest i feltet, indtil han bliver slået ud af de nye genmanipulerede soldater, de såkaldte Caine-typer. Soldaten Caine 607 bliver Todds overmand, og som straf bliver Todd sendt til en øde planet, hvor han skal tilbringe resten af sit liv. Planeten viser sig imidlertid ikke at være helt øde, men tværtimod befolket af et lille samfund, der nedstammer fra en ekspedition, som styrtede ned på planeten for år tilbage.

Soldier-bedømmelser og anmeldelser
- ርልዪረ17. marts 2025Russell forms the best type of hero. Believable in every necessary manner. I continue to be shocked at the lack of praise by audience in general for this sci fi story. Certainly one of the best coming out of Hollywood for many years. Great scenes, sounds and, consistent story line, very 'real' actors... Develops a wished for hero and a very nice feeling ending. So sad they never made a part 2 but maybe that is for the best. Thank you Kurt and others. You made something this old sci fi buff will enjoy many times over.
- flavo434. december 2025Paul W.S. Anderson’s Soldier (1998) delivers a gritty sci-fi action tale centered on the life of Sergeant Todd, played with stoic intensity by Kurt Russell. The film explores the chilling concept of children raised from birth to be emotionless warriors, molded by relentless conditioning and decades of combat. Yet beneath the hardened exterior lies a spark of humanity, revealed when Todd is discarded by his military program and finds refuge among civilians. The narrative contrasts brutal violence with moments of quiet vulnerability, highlighting the resilience of the human spirit even in the face of dehumanization. Explosions, firefights, and futuristic battle sequences keep the adrenaline pumping, while Russell’s restrained performance adds depth to an otherwise straightforward action plot. Though not a perfect film, Soldier resonates as both a spectacle of destruction and a meditation on identity, loyalty, and the possibility of redemption.
- cyberbillp17. november 2025Unofficial Sister Movie to the Blade Runner Series. Written by David Peoples, the writer who worked on Blade Runner. This movie (presumably) takes place on the offworld colonies. Instead of the Tyrel Corporation building replicants from scratch, this competing company uses genetically enhanced humans, raised from birth strickly for warfare. There's quite a number of Blade Runner (and Kurt Russell) referances/homages throughout, but you gotta be on your toes with the pause button to catch them. On it's own, it's a solid scifi entry into Kurt Russell's resume'. Good stuff, worth a watch.

- Richard18. oktober 2025Dismissed by critics, but quietly powerful Soldier is more than just Kurt Russell grunting through explosions. Beneath the pyrotechnics and military clichés lies a surprisingly tender story about obsolescence, identity and quiet rebellion. Russell’s Sergeant Todd barely speaks, but his performance is all eyes and silence, an aging war machine learning to feel. The plot’s simple: discarded soldier defends peaceful settlers from newer, shinier killers. But the emotional beats hit harder than expected. The colony scenes offer a rare softness in a genre often obsessed with tech and testosterone. It’s Wall-E meets Universal Soldier, with a dash of Shane for good measure. Yes, the effects are dated and the pacing uneven, but the film earns its stripes through conviction. It’s not trying to be clever, it’s trying to be honest. And in that honesty, it finds something rare: a sci-fi action flick with a soul.
- Drake7075. august 2025I always loved this movie. I enjoyed it when I was 11 and I enjoy it to this day. I like the super soilder concept and the science fiction setting. Kurt Russell well cast for this movie, in my opinion. It's definitely not a fantastic movie, but at the same time, it's a good watch.
- NewFilmsAnonymous19. juni 2025Beneath the campy pyrotechnics, its a sobering commentary on what happens when we trade human nature for "progress".
- Baby ARES25. maj 2025Fun, And Somewhat underated for its time.
