John Woo has spawned some truly inventive and unique action films like Face/Off and The Killer. Broken Arrow, however, will not be joining his repetoire of unique action films. Broken Arrow tells the story of two military officers that are on... Full review

Another rerun of the ol' nuclear threat hackneyed plot. The action has no traction and the story line would put Rip Van Winkle back to sleep. Better to hand your money to the local panhandler than sit through this dud.... Full review

Broken Arrow is one of my favorite action movies. Christian Slater does a solid job as the hero and John Travolta is excellent as the main villain. With plenty of action and some small doses of humor. Broken Arrow is a... Full review

I have seen quite a few of John Travolta's movies and he seems to be one of those actors who totally *****s his career with one film and then suddenly resurrects it with the next, (Battlefield Earth, need I say more)?... Full review

As it turns out, the film would have been better off had both men gone the other way.....For most of the film's 108 minutes, we watch Travolta die onscreen in what has to be one of the worst performances of his career..... ... Full Review

Ain't It Cool Movie Reviews
That doesn't mean this is a great film, or a good film or even a passable film. Travolta hasn't had this much fun on camera since BROKEN ARROW Now, there's only one way to enjoy this film, and that's to treat it like your child's fingerpainting. ... Full Review

Travolta is much more charismatic than good-guy Slater, but that seems right.....The inspired casting of Travolta as the off-his-rocker nuclear terrorist kicks ``Broken Arrow'' onto another level..... ... Full Review

Broken Arrow'' is just skin deep, and it isn't original, and it has its share of plot holes, but it is fast and fun. Although the acting is good in the film, there is no character development. ... Full Review
