A movie directed and written by a former stuntman. That in itself isn't a guarantee of bad, but it should be a guarantee that your movie has a lot of stunts and stuff in it. But apparently, he wanted to protect his fellow stuntmen, and so this nonsensical movie mostly features scenes of an aged Don "The Dragon Wilson" squatting behind some pipes, or sitting in his post-apocalyptic opera hall, or wherever he lives. The story is the usual -- man builds service robots (robo-cops, if you will), and eventually they rebel and wipe out humanity, save for small pockets of resistance fighters who smear grease and stage dirt on their faces for no real reason. Wilson is the super-soldier who has become a hermit, but will be lured into the battle by being allowed glimpses of Katee "Starbuck" Sackhoff's admittedly persuasive side-boob.
The whole thing is a mess. The Dragon is in hiding, but he frequently stands on the edge of a building, posing heroically, for all killer robots to see. He and Starbuck escape some robots by shooting a grenade launcher directly at their own feet, which rather than blowing them to hell, merely damages the floor enough so that they can fall to safety. They break into the refinery that seems to be the one set the movie could afford, so Starbuck can steal a poorly guarded disc from the central computer that controls the robot police (ha ha! Is that a Commodore 64???), but they never use it. Instead, Wilson breaks back in later and blows up the Commodore 64, thus disabling 99% of the robo police and saving the world. Why the heck didn't they do that the first time they were in the room? The whole thing is just terrible. Flashbacks to Wilson's days during the war against the robots are OK, and Keith David gets to yell and repeat the same quotes over and over. The soldiers all have irritating talking A.I. guns. Wilson stands like five feet from twenty robots with machine guns, and they never hit him. Also, it's good to see that new bottles of Vitamin Water survived the end of the world.
Wilson actually carries his age well, but the movie itself is a cheap, disjointed, first draft of fanfic level piece of junk. Still, Katee Sackhoff side boob. 3/4 boob, actually. Well, BODY DOUBLE SIDE BOOB! YOU COULDN'T EVEN GIVE US THAT ONE SCRAP, COULD YOU LAST SENTINEL???
Don "The Dragon" Wilson does do his own topless scenes, though.

Outside of her acting talents, I can't really see the sex appeal of Katee Sackhoff; she's like a younger Amanda Tapping.
