2032 A.D. The repressive utopia of San Angeles (merger of Los Angeles, Santa Barbara, San Diego) is disrupted when a 20th-century criminal called Simon Phoenix (the name is bad enough; the yellow hair is worse) escapes from cryo-prison. The cop who put him there, and who has inhabited an ice cube himself for thirty-odd years, is thawed out to recapture him. There are lots of lame Rip van Winkle jokes: commercial jingles are now golden oldies, all restaurants are called Taco Bell, etc. And the action (smoke, sparks, explosions), while not exactly jokey, is not exactly serious, either. Sylvester Stallone, Wesley Snipes, Sandra Bullock; directed by Marco Brambilla. (1993) — Duncan Shepherd
