A jaw-droppingly bad rip-off of "Batman" and "RoboCop", with poor Shak sweating it under a suit of armour, fighting against evil arms dealers and being chased by stupid LAPD cops. This film makes "Spawn" look moderately watchable. Irma T.Hall, the face-slapping matron from "Nothing To Loose", makes an appearance again, but sadly, doesn't beat anybody up.
