Now this movie came on Cinemax a few days ago, and by reading the description, I just had to watch it.
SYNOPSIS:
I Come In Peace features Dolph Lundgren as OFFICER CAINE, a badboy cop who doesn't play by the rules! Edgy! Provacative! He is currently under threat by THE WHITE BOYS, a group of diabolical drug dealers, who kill PARTNER COP. His day is made worse when BAD ALIEN shows up. BAD ALIEN looks like a ridiculously buff mullet man, but even scarier. BAD ALIEN proceeds to kill anyone using or possesing HEROIN. He then sticks a SPACE NEEDLE into their heads and sucks out HEROIN. He also throws a CD-looking SPACE FRISBEE at anyone who gets in his way, killing them with razor blades. He proceeds to stash the HEROIN in his hideout, hissing "I COME IN PEACE!!!". OFFICER CAINE and AGENT LAWRENCE learn of BAD ALIEN from GOOD ALIEN, who is really tall but has a ponytail instead. OFFICER CAINE, AGENT LAWRENCE, and GIRLFRIEND then go after BAD ALIEN with a stolen SPACE UZI, which looks like a credit card scanner, but lamer, and has the distinct characteristic of blowing up rows of cars surrounding the target. After a brief shootout with THE WHITE BOYS and a car chase following BAD ALIEN, the trio lure BAD ALIEN into a warehouse by placing his drugs on the ground. AGENT LAWRENCE tries to kill BAD ALIEN with his SPACE UZI, but realizes that it is out of ammo, alerting BAD ALIEN to his presence. BAD ALIEN then throws AGENT LAWRENCE off a building and pimp slaps GIRLFRIEND. OFFICER CAINE then leads BAD ALIEN away by threatening to destroy his HEROIN. BAD ALIEN falls for the ruse, which allows OFFICER CAINE to impale him on a gas pipe. BAD ALIEN, recognizing his defeat, gasps "I COME IN PEACE!!!", to which OFFICER CAINE replies "YOU GO IN PIECES" shooting him with akimbo SPAS-12 and SPACE UZI. AGENT LAWRENCE and GIRLFRIEND then wake up and escape with OFFICER CAINE as the warehouse explodes.
tl;dr: Aliens come to Earth, turn people into drugs.
So, you ask, should I watch it?
My answer would be: YES. However, if you get headaches from movies with convulted plots and horrible dialogue, STAY AWAY, because you will shit your brains out from prolonged exposure to this film.
Also, fuck the critics. Just because a movie get 12% on RottenTomatos doesn't mean its bad. This movie is art in motion, and is one of the great masterpieces of the 1990's. Go look it up if you already haven't seen it.
Hey, its drago from Rocky IV.
If he says "If he dies, he dies" then I'm watching it.
He DOES kill a black guy towards the beginning of the film. That is the closest to Rocky you'll get, though.
