越空狂龙 (1993)

"Demolition Man" is a high-octane American sci-fi action film directed by Marco Brambilla, released in 1993. Written by Daniel Waters, Robert Reneau, and Peter M. Lenkov, this futuristic romp pits two larger-than-life foes against each other in a glossy, tongue-in-cheek dystopia, blending explosive thrills with satirical bite. The story begins in 1996, when rogue cop John Spartan (Sylvester Stallone) captures psychopathic criminal Simon Phoenix (Wesley Snipes), only to be framed for civilian deaths and cryo-frozen alongside him. Fast-forward to 2032: Phoenix breaks free during a parole hearing in the sanitized, pacifist utopia of San Angeles, where crime is extinct and police are clueless. Thawed to stop him, Spartan—nicknamed "Demolition Man" for his reckless past—clashes with Phoenix’s chaos in a city ruled by the benevolent tyrant Dr. Cocteau (Nigel Hawthorne). Aided by plucky officer Lenina Huxley (Sandra Bullock), Spartan unravels a conspiracy shaking this perfect world. Famed for its over-the-top action, Snipes’ gleeful villainy, and a playful script packed with ‘90s pop-culture gags—like the “three seashells” mystery—"Demolition Man" revels in its fish-out-of-water humor. Stallone’s gruff charm and Bullock’s breakout role, paired with a sleek futuristic aesthetic, made it a fan favorite. Released in 1993, "Demolition Man" grossed over $159 million worldwide, earning a cult following for its prescient satire and adrenalized fun. A brash relic of its era, it’s a wild ride where the past and future collide with a bang.
