It's a bit of an urban myth that Carolco went bust because of it. They were basically out of business before it even hit cinemas.

It's just a fun romp for me personally. I enjoyed it all the times i've seen it but can understand why others may not.

The fact i've read and seen it has a yellow tint to it is kinda putting me off a purchase now.
