CRITICAL COMMENTS
"Bosworth couldn't act his way through the Seattle Seahawks and he's not likely to act his way into a film career based on this first outing. Most of Stone Cold is plain silly, regurgitated biker-film cliches underscored with awful hard rock cliches." -- Richard Harrington, Washington Post
