Mario Van Peeples is a cool cat, and he's been in a couple of really cool movies. I love Posse, for instance, but in my opinion his best role is probably as Max in Full Eclipse. This is an underrated, superhero-inspired dark action flick about a secret police task force who are really werewolves. I call them "Team Wolverine", because, well, they're like a team of Wolverines! Max is the promising rookie cop who gets inducted into this task force (without being made a werewolf - at first), among other things by being seduced by the delectable Patsy Kensit, whose role here is also one of her very best.
This movie's got style and coolness oozing out of every orifice. Stylistically, it is brilliant. Lots of cool scenes, cool lines and situations that are just outrageous enough to be very cool and very funny at the same time. As when the team returns to the police station with torn, smoking uniforms and the steering wheel of their van, demanding of the receptionist, "We need a new vehicle". These are some dad-burned cool mudderfokkers!! Of course, the movie is not for everyone. It's a B-movie, sure. I understand why some people would find it silly, or even bad. But it's got a style all its own, and I love it.
