Review

A cop from future is sent back to history to protect people. When he is sent to history he will gets a body of another person from that time and this time this man in a history have a woman with him. This cop falls in love with this woman and together they will try to protect those who are in danger and why this man was sent to history in the first place.

This was quite interesting B class movie. It had some Bladerunner and Terminator kind of vibes in it. The Terminator came same year than this movie and Bladerunner two years before so it might be the case that neither of those movie have given any inspiration for this film, but when I saw it now I got some feelings that those movies could have given some inspiration for this.

Story works ok, but it is not the greatest one. Or maybe the story itself is not very bad, but the movie from it is not the greatest movie ever, whatever the case, it does not matter. If you are open to see B class movies from the past, this might work - at least it was working for me. If you are searching for masterpieces of cinema then this is safe to skip and continue searching for something else to see.
