Format:VHS Tape
Charlie Sheen is excellent as Don Saxon, a displaced police officer trying to reconcile his good heart and need to do what's right with the fact that he murdered his abusive uncle when he was six years old. Saxon (Sheen) is haunted by his past. He is forced to come face to face with who he really is by assuming the alter ego of Sid, an undercover cop infiltrating drug and gun smuggling biker gangs. There are times when Saxon cannot distinguish bewteen Sid and himself. This immersion in Sid probably saves his life and enables his success in surviving the ruthless biker world and in gathering huge amounts of damaging evidence. Anyone who has had to resolve guilt and anger from their past, and who loves bikes and biker freedom will enjoy this true story and find a little of themselves in Sid/Saxon. Charlie Sheen's best movie since "Platoon", with strong support from Fiorentino and Madsen. The soudtrack leaves an indelible impression equal to that of the story itself. I enjoyed this movie very much and watch it over and over.

Format:VHS Tape
I saw this movie a few years ago, when I was a police officer, and I loved it. The fact that it's based on true story made it that much more interesting to me. When I finally found it for sale, I bought it immediately! I don't know how many times I've seen this movie but each time is just as good as the first! I was pleasantly surprised to see Linda Fiorentino in a nude sex scene and Michael Madson playing a great bad guy part. The whole thing is brought together with a wonderful performance by Charlie Sheen (as he usually does)

Format:DVD
Released here in Australia under the more 'spiritual' title "Fixing the Shadow", this film, based on a true story, deals with an undercover cop (Sheen) who verges on the suicidal. His pain stems from the confrontation he had with his cop-step-father who abused him as a child.
Sheen, encountering an Apache, learns the tale of someone who 'lost their shadow.' Thus, as Sheen goes undercover, he must confront his fears in order to be restored whole.
You can bear this in mind, otherwise this would just be another biker film.

Not a bad old skool classic biker film
Typical story about a police officer infiltrating an outlaw motorcycle club, getting caught up in the inticing lifestyle and has to claw himself out. Not a bad film.

Entertaining Movie, But Very Little Truth
Entertaining biker movie with some fine acting from Sheen, Madsen, Vance and co. Fiorentino looks great. Lots of action and a plausible script. For that, you could add a star. Read more

Good biker flick; loosely based on a true story...

My dad loves this flick
My dad missed the last 45 minutes of this movie back in the 90s when it came out on VHS. He never has gotten over it, so he asked me to order this movie for him on DVD. Read more
