The end spoils it all.
30 October 1999
Warning: Spoilers
The last minutes of "Dead Connection" would make us laugh to death (not the ultimate aim for a cop movie), if they did not make us feel so sick. In the final moments the hero, Matt (Michael Madsen), fights a former Marine´s boxing champion who beats him easily and savagely. But as usual, a divine healing restores his power and allows Matt to strike back just enough for his recent female companion (also classic) to shoot his opponent. And guess what, Matt´s face does not show the slightest trace of a punch (Oh! He does have a tiny cut over his eye!).

The whole situation is so ridiculous that it makes us forget that the rest is not bad. Nothing fancy, but O.K., specially thanks to a very good performance from Madsen.
