I basically bought this movie with the idea it was complete garbage, so I could mock it as it played. As it turns out, it's actually decent! I'm not saying -good-, but certainly not the worst movie.
If I were to explain, it's a movie about a cyborg, a ninja, Tasha Yar, and a guy doing a Han Solo impression teaming up to fight a time-travelling Roman cyborg who has a shield that shoots lighting force-fields at people. If that doesn't sound a -little- cool, I got nothing to say to you.
Again, it's not a particularly good movie, but had I watched this when I was 9-12 years old, it would've blown me away. That's my recommendation. It's a good 80s action flick for the kids. They'll like it, and you needn't worry about heavy violence or swearing.
