Eric Brogar (Dolph Lundgren)
is a pentathlete and part of the supreme East German Olympic
squad competeing at the 1988 Olympics in Seoul. He has been pushed
to both physical and mental limits by his Nazi coach, Heinrich
Mueller. Overcome with despair at the thought of returning to
a life of oppression Eric seizes an opportunity to escape to
a new life of freedom. A life which is to be haunted by regret,
isolation and the terror of a mad man's obsession to wreak revenge. |

- "Pentathlon"
has been released theatrically in South Korea, Japan, Italy,
and Spain.
- Dolph Lundgren would
have found out when he arrived on the set, that the budget was
only half of what he was promised. |
|
Easily one of Dolph's best
movies. The script is well-written and carries an engaging storyline,
and Dolph is in his prime. There's definitely a lot of action
in here, but above and beyond that, Dolph portrays his character
using a wide range of emotions (humour and drama being the two
most notable), which makes for a great movie. |
