Whilst the plot is very formulaic, Stone Cold is still really good fun. Brian Bosworth gives a really good lead performance and proves he is a very capable action star. Lance Henriksen is great as the villain. Its well paced and builds effectively to a satisfying, over the top and action packed third act. It's well filmed and Craig R. Baxley's direction is good. The music by Sylvester Levay is also good.
