Universal Soldier: The Return

During the "control room" battle, the regeneration chamber computer flashes "HEALING COMPLETE" during the shot showing the code has been broken - but later, the healing is not yet complete.

After Romeo climbs off the car when Luc kicks him out of the hospital window, a specific pattern of damage is visible on his back (melting of his uniform).

He then enters the hospital and rips off his armor and shirt.

Later, in Luc and Romeo's final confrontation, Romeo is wearing the same uniform (indicated by the damage on the back) still neatly buttoned/buckled up.

During the final fight sequence between SETH and Luc, SETH grabs Luc by the neck with his right hand and holds him into the chair.

Whilst holding him into the chair, the hand holding the neck switches to his left hand and then back his right hand again between shots.

During the battle in the Chemical Weapons storage room, where UniSol Romeo is stalking Luc and reporter Erin Young, Luc starts out wearing a dark jacket over his gray shirt.

After a short cutaway from him and Erin, his dark jacket is suddenly gone with no visible sign of it.

Later, as the movie returns to the Chemical Weapons room fight after a brief detour, Luc suddenly has his dark jacket back on, but this time we also see him actually take it off after it catches fire.

When the soldiers are setting up the bomb in the generator room.

You can clearly see that the bomb is a c-4 bomb.

Later in the scene one of the soldiers accidentally shoots the bomb and it explodes.

C-4 does not explode when shot.

C-4 only explodes when the detonator is triggered.

When the Seth brain is implanted into the Super-UniSol, he gives a speech to the rest of the UniSols.

During this speech he directs his soldiers to "gather raw materials, so what we may expand our numbers geometrically".

Geometrically should have probably been "exponentially".

It was 6/10/1999. I was so worried about a result of some exam, and wanting desperately to end the time with anything.

This sequel is pretty good. The cast is well rounded.

The Unisol program continues in a government research facility. Luc Deveraux (Jean-Claude Van Damme) is partnered with Maggie to refine the program.

This film completely ruins the storyline, Van Damme character is now somehow completely human, his girlfriend is killed off. What a start!

If you saw Universal Soldier, and liked it, you should also see Universal Soldier: The Return. Despite all the movies that followed Universal Soldier, this one is actually a 'direct' sequel.

I must say when I first saw this movie I'd only seen bits of the first one and hadn't seen the 2nd or 3rd which are made for TV, so didn't really get the overall plot although I knew this one basically follows on from the 1st as it features Van Damme whilst the 2nd and 3rd don't, so I thought thats good enough for me.Anyway, I sat down and watched it and must say I was very, very impressed.

Before "Independence Day" and before even "Stargate," Roland Emmerich and Dean Devlin made an underrated Jean-Claude Van Damme sci-fi action film where he and Dolph Lundgren play soldiers killed in Vietnam who find themselves reanimated and turned into programmable cyborg super soldiers. That film was followed by two made-for-TV sequels and then by this film, making it the fourth film in the franchise, although this sequel ignores the events of those TV movies, instead picking up following the events of the first film.

Universal Soldier: The Return (1999) in my opinion is the most underrated, bashed, hated solid sequel flick that I absolutely Love and one of my favorite movies in the franchise! After the success of the first film Universal Soldier (1992) directed from Roland Emmerich, there were two TV movies directed who were suppose to be a mini series and they were all canceled.
