Sylvester Stallone and Wesley Snipes go at it amid a dazzling cyber-future in this explosive hit. In 2032 archcriminal Simon Phoenix (Snipes) awakens from a 35-year deep freeze in CryoPrison to find a serene non-violent Los Angeles ready for the taking. Unable to deal with Phoenix's brutal 1990s style, officials seek an old-fashioned cop to fight old-fashioned crime. They revive Sgt. John Spartan (Stallone) unjustly serving a CryoPrison sentence because of his last encounter with Phoenix. Sandra Bullock Benjamin Bratt and Denis Leary also play rough and tough in this "terrific mix of action and humour" (Joel Siegel, Good Morning America/ABC-TV).
