Metro (1997)

(On VHS, August 1997) A bland title for an even more unmemorable movie. The plot has been seen a thousand times (Hero cop. Dead partner. Smart bad guy. Car chase. Girlfriend in peril. Explosion. The End. Oh, there’s a New Partner in there somewhere) and Metro confuses smart touches with incoherence (or maybe the other way around). The Girlfriend is cute and there’s one rousing good sequence in the movie (the car chase, surprise!) but the remainder will flee out of your memory as the credits scroll. At least, I didn’t pay to see it.
