Customer Ratings & Reviews

Entertaining movie that doesn’t take itself to seriously but had a good budget and good actors. Stallone , bullock and snipes make it great. Made me think of Judge Dredd a little bit. This would be the prequel :) but this movie is little better than judge dredd to me. Just more engaging of a film. Sandra bullock is hilarious. Blu-ray looks great and sound is great.

Yes I have saw this movie before but not on Blu-ray and it was worthwhile I had movie night with my wife and kids the blue-ray movie brought this classic to life .thanks Bestbuy

Don't let the title fool you, its more than a bland demolition like many titles today the imply something boring and result in something exciting. Its action packed, exceptional acting, STAR powered movie dealing with a future where passive living and an autocractic ruler find his perfect socialist paradise is crushing freedom and liberty and needs an X-COP (as always cops) to fix a problem he hatched to deal with the growing fascism of the peasant class. Yes its DEEP but straight to a point if you read into it, then again its just a cop vs bad guy movie a shoot-em up, love story, action flick.

I remember all the hype that surrounded Demolition Man when it was in theaters. Even after the movie was realesed on VHS, Blockbuster Video had the whole store decked out with Demolition Man posters and cardboard cut outs of all the actors. The News at the time was showing off the special effects and all the GM prototype cars they were using. The movie was a blast to watch again! Demolition Man is funny and full of action! It holds up today and it's one of my favorite movies of all time!

A cast of great actors who deliver a fast paced action adventure. The comedy found in the cultural differences between the 2 time eras only emphasizes the evilness of the antagonist and enhances this action packed movie. Excellent performances by Snipes, Stallone & Bullock - a psychotic, a hardcore cop and an ingenue. Watch it more than once!

Director Marco Brambilla somehow wasn’t able to parlay much of a career out of the success he found with his 1993 debut, DEMOLITION MAN. In any case, the Sylvester Stallone and Wesley Snipes starring sci fi actioner with a satirical bite still holds up. Featuring a strong supporting cast, some solid comedy, high production values, and great fight sequences, I enjoyed the heck out of the film after upgrading from VHS to blu ray this week. In the near future of 1996, Los Angeles supercop John Spartan (Stallone, nearing the end of his peak), who’s also known by the moniker of “Demolition Man” because of his property damaging tendencies, fails to rescue thirty hostages while apprehending the brutal crime lord, Simon Phoenix (a deliciously over the top Snipes). As a result, both are placed in suspended animation for decades in a newly implemented cryo prison. However, in 2032 Phoenix escapes from a parole hearing into a seemingly utopian society that’s been sanitized to the extreme and is mostly populated by effete weaklings. Phoenix immediately commits the first murders in decades with the police proving to be completely ineffective against his ultraviolent methods. A 20th century obsessed cop (Sandra Bullock in a role that propelled her to stardom) suggests waking up Spartan since he was responsible for bringing down Phoenix in the previous century. Spartan, a traditional man’s man, soon finds himself out of place in a humorous but plausible civilization that’s banned anything “bad” like salt and swearing while trying to track down Phoenix. All is not as it seems, though, as underground dwelling revolutionaries led by Edgar Friendly (Dennis Leary basically personifying his comedy routines) attempt to upend the bland status quo. Much humor is found in skewering the ideals of the rotten beneath the surface utopia that values flavorless safety and politeness over everything else. While it’s never mean spirited, the film definitely has something to say and weaves this message into the narrative. It also lands a few jokes about the proliferation of corporatization. You may not agree with some of the points the film attempts to make but it’s this aspect that truly makes it memorable. Spartan and Phoenix’s reactions to this alien society are the inverse of each other and allow for both humor and sincerity. In addition to the megastar power of Stallone, Snipes, Bullock, and Leary, there’s also Benjamin Bratt as a typically sensitive but good-natured cop, Bob Gunton as the condescending police chief, Nigel Hawthorne as the powerful architect of the utopia, and Glenn Shadix a memorably sycophantic lackey. Rob Schneider, Jack Black, and Jesse Ventura all have bit roles, as well. Everyone involved sells cowriters Daniel Waters, Robert Reneau, and Peter Lenkov’s quirky futuristic dialog. Perhaps the only writing flaw (which could also just be a result of something being cut out) is the pathos Spartan could feel at the loss of his wife and his willingness to get into bed with Bullock’s character. In the end, though, that’s not really the type of movie this is. Special effects, costumes, and set designs are all top notch. Working together, they create a very immersive and believably futuristic environment. Also, the fight scenes are very well done. They’re nicely filmed, but it’s Snipes physical prowess and abilities that really drive the choreography. He absolutely appears to be quite formidable, which brings me to another strength of the picture. Spartan and Phoenix are evenly matched. Every scene is filmed as to give the impression that it could go either way, with the actors making an interesting pairing. It’s not like in COMMANDO where Arnold Schwarzenegger clearly outclassed Vernon Wells. Marco Brambilla’s DEMOLITION MAN is still a great time and is still relevant despite satirizing cultural and societal trends of the ‘90s. The Sting performed theme song that plays over the closing credits is laughably bad and misplaced, but that’s a fairly minor flaw. Everything else pretty much works and it’s entertaining as all get out to see Stallone, Snipes, and Bullock play in fully realized futuristic world. Highly recommended.

It’s just one of those back catalogue films for fans. It’s a great add on to a collection of old 90s action film. Looks great in HD, would be nice if they mastered in 4K though.

Forgot how great, funny and entertaining this film is! If it's been awhile or if you've never seen it, you should watch it!! Action packed and hilarious fun...in the future! Where Taco Bell is the ONLY restaurant you can feast at.

Ok all in all not the greatest of movies as the plot is fairly predictable in certain places but Wesley Snipes’ over the top performance makes it a great movie worth watching. And to find it on blu-Ray was certainly a bonus. So if you like action this is one worth watching.

This movie is so captivating and this bluray version does this movie justice.

Sandra Bullock shines bright with Stallone's humor in a fantastic futuristic adventure taking on a demonic Snipes from the past . . . until he blew up everything .

This is a fun movie with some big name actors. It is interestingly enough set in the "future," which is now only about 20 years away. great for those who like SciFi.

This movie is a classic, especially if you are a fan of Sly Stallone or Wesley Snipes! I love the quality of the movie and able to use the CC anytime. Thanks! :)

I had not seen this movie since it was in theaters, walked thru the store and there it was. Still a good movie with many good actors in it. It also is rather relevant with today's talk of government run society.

Taco Bell won the Restaurant Wars. Wesley Snipes is (still) a fugitive from the law. Sylvester Stallone? He gonna get some! Hua!

No scratches. Played smoothly. Packaging intact. Very satisfied! Best store to buy discs for sure. Have not been disappointed.

This is a cult classic from the 90s. If you are looking for action then this is the movie for you. It is a must see if you’ve never seen Wesley snipes He is great in his roe.

This futuristic comedy depends on your opinion of Stallone and his unapologetic popcorn-pleasing action no-brainers. To be fair, this one is one of his better ones

I feel that these were the last of the good ones. Sylvester Stallone and Wesley Snipes put on a great performance!!!

Movie's been out for awhile just saw. It was a great film, action packed. I really did like this movie
