Watched this as I thought big stars can't be all that bad , well I was wrong , terrible plot , bad cardboard acting and that was from everyone in this film , don't waste your time and money on this one .

This is a tough watch. I like Stallone (although his quality has and is dropping) and I really like Modine but its not enough to save this mediocre effort. To show us the pain that the Modine character undergoes the director uses a seismic simulating visual effect. Initially when I was first exposed to the 'seismic' effects of a man getting his memory back I thought it was a clever way of showing the turmoil going on in Modine's head, after repeated 'seismic' events the effect becomes firstly boring and then irritating...can we give the man a headache tablet? I think the only people in more pain than Modine in this movie is the audience :( You would probably better off if you wipe this one from your memory!

Somehow we confuse the serendipity, of having lucked into a good script with rocky, which was successful because of the sappy times with actual passable acting. Backtrace is one of films that really shows how mistaken we were. The idiot cannot act. At some point, in 40 years of Stallone playing the same extremely limited range, mostly pretending to be punch drunk, gets tiresome and illustrative of total lack of talent and skill.

I just love Stallone, let me say that, but this one is just not a very good movie. And for sure not worthy of his talent. Why would he be in this for a little amount of time? I have no idea, even his screen time does not really make an impression. I for one am glad he did Rambo 5 after this one, because that one is a real Stallone movie one expects it to be.
