Steel
When a renegade military reject puts new superweapons in dangerous hands, John Henry Irons becomes Steel. Wearing body armor, wielding a fearsome electrohammer and riding a gadget-packed motorcycle, he's ready to wage war... if he can fix the untimely glitches in his untested gear.
Critics Sentiment
Steel makes his debut fighting crime in his metal suit
Irons is arrested at his grandmother's house by police
The film's biggest drop occurs when Steel gets arrested at home, plummeting from moderate entertainment to rock bottom before recovering slightly for the finale.
Steel maintains consistently poor quality throughout with brief moments of unintentional entertainment. Most reviewers found it hilariously bad rather than genuinely good, with Shaq's performance and the ridiculous suit providing campy laughs. The film never rises above mediocre but occasionally dips into truly terrible territory during dramatic scenes.
