I taped this with the follow-up they aired immediately afterwards along with the 1990 theatrical film. I've only gotten the chance to watch the first movie so far. Two points I can add to what's already been said:
Someone obviously saw a guy with superpowers named Steve and said, "Hey, let's do a rip-off of SIX MILLION DOLLAR MAN!" So instead of Steve Austin crashing in his experimental aircraft we get Steve Rodgers ... crashing in his chevy van.
The movie seems really, really into that motocycle and heliocopters. Seems like half the running-time was spent watching people in various transportation.
And I agree the ending is just a flat-out, laughable dud. I'm watching it and thinking, "Geesh, even I could have done that!"
Oh, well ... on to the sequel with Connie Seleca and Chris Lee! Yee-ha!
