Watch Eraser For Free

Beautiful, moving film.

It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

I saw this back in the day on VHS it was one of the first dvds I bought so yeah I like it. Basically this is a 90s actioner but has decent scifi element good cast and crew. Add all that up and you get a fun romp big hero dude good bad guy my kinda flick! Effects are good which in this genre is important, writing not so much less important.

Eraser was Arnold Schwarzenegger's last decent movie before his string of box office flops including Batman and Robin (1997), End of Days (1999), The Sixth Day (2000), and Collateral Damage (2002). Despite several flaws here and there as well as Arnold Schwarzenegger at his corny best dispensing his vintage one liners as well as the bad guys, Eraser is still an entertaining action movie.Arnold Schwarzenegger is U.S. Marshall John Kruger, also known as the Eraser. John Kruger is responsible for erasing the lives of witnesses that are a part of the Witness Protection Program by faking their deaths and giving them new identities. He is assigned to protect Lee Cullen (Vanessa Williams) after she agrees to retrieve information from Cyrez Corporation, who is also responsible for shady illegal arms deals, including the sale of an electromagnetic pulse rifle also known as the rail gun. John Kruger must keep Lee Cullen safe as well as uncovering a further conspiracy that involves high ranking members of the government, as well as his boss and mentor fellow U.S. Marshall Robert DeGuerin (James Cann).Also featured in the cast is James Coburn as WitSec Chief Beller who turns out to be Kruger's only ally, James Cromwell as the crooked Cyrez boss William Donahue, and Robert Pastorelli as a fellow witness Kruger erases Johnny Casteleone.Director Charles Russell (The Blob, The Mask) was a surprise choice as the director given that he had just directed the smash hit comedy The Mask (1994) with Jim Carrey. Charles Russell keeps the movie enjoyable with comic book action.Eraser used to be one of my favourite movies when I was 13 years old, however as time has gone on Eraser is not as a huge movie as it used to be. Unfortunately there are plot holes aplenty and Arnold Schwarzenegger's corny humour seems forced, but is certainly an enjoyable action movie that can pass the time.7/10.

John Kruger (Arnold Schwarzenegger) is a US Marshal who specialises in Witness Protection. Lee Cullen (Vanessa Williams) is an employee of CYREZ who, with the assistance of the FBI attempts to infiltrate her own organisation as it is believed that her boss William Donohue (James Cromwell) is selling weapons illegally on the black market. Cullen manages to acquire a disk which contains vital evidence regarding the illicit deal, but when those that Donohue are working for find out that Cullen has this piece of evidence, they set about doing everything they can to silence her and it's down to John Kruger to do his best to protect her; As action thrillers go this is fairly generic with very little in the way of surprises. However, the story is constantly engaging and the action never really lets up throughout the 115 minute running time. Caan was solid as always and I also felt that Vanessa Williams was also fairly convincing in her respective role. The film also has quite a lot of 'tongue in cheek' humour running through it such as when Kruger parachutes out of a plane and lands in a car compound and asks a couple of kids where he is and they just reply 'Earth'. Another funny moment is when Kruger catches up with Cullen and she says 'You're late' and Kruger replies 'Traffic'. It just showed that the film maker's managed to make a serious film, but not one that took itself too seriously. Michael Bay does this a lot (I know that he has a lot of haters, but I meant this as a compliment).Whilst I'm all for fun and things not always being taken seriously in actions films, I do get bothered when filmmaker's create set pieces that defy the law of physics in order to make things more exciting; there is a scene on the aircraft where Arnie opens the door at a relatively high altitude. However, for some reason he isn't sucked out of the door even when he's sat next to it and seemingly doesn't have to hold onto anything to stay in the aircraft. Then a short while later, he finds himself clinging onto the edge of the door on the outside of the plane (Laws of Physics have now been remembered) and then he lets go and manages to avoid being sucked into one of the engines which is directly behind him (admittedly it was on fire, but surely it still would have had enough force to suck him into the engine rather than under it). Exciting? Yes, Plausible? Hell no!!!!!Then the following scene shows him chasing a parachute through the sky (which has clearly been ripped off from the start of Moonraker)Then we come to Arnie himself, whilst there's no denying that he's not the best of actors, I personally feel that he is one of the best when it comes to delivering the 'One Liners' - he seems to do it in a dry sort of way which just almost seems effortless. Of course, he's also such a big screen presence that he doesn't always need much dialogue to be awesome (think about the first Terminator film - how many lines did he actually have in that film and he was still brilliant and so was that film).In summary, this is a fairly generic film which we have seen several times before with very few surprises. However, it's serviceable because the story is good, the performances from the main cast are good and the film never lags or loses momentum for one minute. Whilst, it's far from being Arnie's best (admittedly the bar has been set high with films like T2, T1, Predator etc) this is still a very good film which seems to have been overlooked by a lot of people. Definitely worth watching!

Arnold Schwarzenegger plays U.S. Marshal John 'The Eraser' Kruger, a specialist in the witness protection program who is assigned to protect Lee Cullen(Vanessa Williams) who had uncovered shady dealings at a military weapons manufacturer that she had worked for. The company now wants her dead, so John takes Lee to New York City with the help of his friend, fellow U.S. Marshal Robert Guerin(played by James Caan) Unfortunately, someone in the program has betrayed them, and now John and Lee must go on the run from both forces in order to expose the true villains, and save their lives.Pretty good Arnold S. film has lots of exciting action scenes, and an appealing cast of characters. Film has a predictable plot though, and stretches credibility at times, but is mostly entertaining.
