As a tough U.S. Marshal in the Witness Protection Program, it's Arnold Schwarzenegger's job to "erase" the identities of exposed witnesses. But his latest case--a cool lady exec with the goods on a hot political scandal--is almost as tough as he is. A lean, mean action hit packed with dynamite special effects and the nastiest electromagnetic gun you'll ever see.

Critics Consensus: Eraser's shoot-'em-up action might show off some cutting edge weaponry, but its rote story is embarrassingly obsolete.

Reviews

Miami Herald

Rene Rodriguez

Most of Eraser consists of Schwarzenegger and Williams dodging bullets and bad guys, but director Chuck Russell doesn't put much effort into the action scenes: He simply points the camera and shoots.

I think Eraser (1996), directed by Chuck Russell and co-starring James Caan and Vanessa Williams, is the first large-scale Schwarzenegger film that nobody cared about.

Tree trunk he may be, but Mr. Schwarzenegger has grown new branches with green leaves in this smart action thriller, directed with panache by Charles Russell and written crisply by Tony Puryear and Walon Green.

...delivers exactly what one might’ve anticipated (and hoped for) based on the premise.

A few of the set pieces are fussy or overly extended, but the rest is tolerable bone-crunching diversion.
