Reviews for Hardware
Nearly two decades later, Hardware retains its merciless poise, and while the filmmaker has slipped into obscurity, his finest work still lunges for the throat.
They say all you need to make a movie is a girl and a gun. But if you've got a girl and a killer robot, then you're really onto something.
Surprisingly capable sci-fi/monster thriller. And the soundtrack is so cool it can kill from fifty yards away.
Fantastic "future shock" movie about a killer robot run amuck in a postnuclear future. Not to be missed!
