What's Hot

Stylish and beautiful visuals, environmental destruction, action hero acrobatics.

What's Not

Fundamentally repetitive, using cover doesn't always work, generic multiplayer.

The Final Word

As disappointing as the lack of a compelling online component is, playing action hero is pretty much a solo activity anyway. Stranglehold might stumble occasionally under its own ambitious weight, and might not quite deliver on all its promises and potential, but it's still a unique and absorbing eight-hour tour through a legendary action director's potent unfilmable dreams.
