Unless you're a completist for 90s action flicks or Kurt Russell completists, skip this one—it's a forgettable slog that squanders an interesting premise with plodding pacing and wooden performances. The premise alone isn't enough to save what critics and audiences agree is a missed opportunity.

Plot

Sergeant Todd is a veteran soldier for an elite group of the armed forces. After being defeated by a new breed of genetically engineered soldiers, he is dumped on a waste planet and left for dead. He soon interacts with a group of crash survivors who lead out a peaceful existence. The peace is broken as the new soldiers land on the planet to eliminate the colony, which Sergeant Todd must defend.
