Universal Soldier: The Return

(Columbia TriStar)

Jean Claude Van Damme's Unisol has become human and is now a single father -- but that doesn't stop him from taking on a computer called SETH. The cardboard baddies here are pro wrestling's Goldberg and buffster Michael Jai White. ESPN fitness babe Kiana Tom is on hand, and so is Heidi Sanchez as the pain-in-the-ass reporter turned love interest. But the film clicks only when Van Damme and White square off in the "big" fight sequence.
