Customer Reviews of Supreme Sanction

Great movie with vision into the future and political hints
A scaring movie if you look at the story line. Considering the parallels to the Bush administrations plots happening, after this movie was made. It is just amazing, how the director of the movie came up with this. I really wonder why this movie was not stronger promoted in The United States. This one really makes you think about the consequences of a fashist government, silencing citizens and news reporters, up to execution of very critical citizens. Just in order to justify the maintaining of certain government agencies. (Did I hear Homeland Security and The Patriot Act?) It is a fast paced and thrilling, sometimes bone chilling movie, if you actually put in the effort, to look beyond the fact of entertaining yourself. It is so real, that it could play in the middle of the current United States of America today. This movie is definately one, which you will enjoy, if you are a critical, politically involved and educated individual, who wants more than the shoot 'em all up terminator style movie.

Not bad, but rather Deja Vu.
This is really a shame. Supreme Sanction is a fast-moving, enjoyable action thriller, but so much of it has been copied from other movies. The 'assassin refuses to shoot and becomes a target himself' theme is straight out of Replacement Killers. The 'Government agency fakes terrorist attack to get more funding' comes out of Long Kiss Goodnight' and the helicopter stunts that open the movie are the same footage I saw in Firebirds. This said, Supreme Sanction is a well acted movie with a good script. Madsen an Swanson do an interesting 'good killer/bad killer routine' and the score and effects were quite decent. A pity they could not get a more original story.

Entertaining, especially the commentary special feature.
I save the movie on DVD and really enjoyed it. However, I like it even more watching it a second time with the candid commentary by Michael Madsen and the director. They are hilarious. They don't just talk about the movie, there are other personal tid bits that you get from Michael. He should commentate on all of his future movies that come out on DVD.
