This is the first Dolph Lundgren movie I've seen in many a moon and I found it an entertaining modern day take on the classic Westerns of old, mainly Shane, High Plains Drifter and most of all Pale Rider. Dolph... Full review

As Dolph's 3rd directorial efforts, I've watched "Missionary Man" twice and the story plot was good. I'm just disappointed that the camera man who did the film-making of the "Missionary Man" - he didn't make the detailed shooting of Dolph's fighting... Full review

Dolph Lundgren is the unappreciated underdog of DTV action stars. While many people flock to buy Van Damme or Seagal's latest pics, less chase after Mr. Lundgren's work, and that's a shame. He has something going on. Something good.MM (Missionary... Full review

But Dolph himself looks better than ever, he's a real manly man and his voice kind of sounds like James Coburn's.....But I've always liked Dolph, hey, he was the original Punisher back in 1989!.... ... Full Review

The man looks so demented when he delivers some of the most simple and potentially silly dialog....Yet, even in moments of low-budget action sequences and poor dialog Dolph Lundgren carries the entertainment on his shoulders..... ... Full Review

He could possibly make a decent career as a character actor or colorful supporting player in better movies.
I don't blame Lundgren for attempting to forge a professional identity more developed than Ivan Drago
