London im Jahr 2008. Aus der einst pulsierenden Hauptstadt wurde eine trostlose und von Umweltgiften heimgesuchte Stadt, in der die Ratten an Oberhand gewinnen. Ein Mörder treibt sein Unwesen, indem er seine Opfer scheinbar nach einem alten Voodoo-Ritual brutal umbringt und ihnen das Herz entfernt. Der Polizist Harley Stone und sein Partner begeben sich auf die Jagd nach dem unmenschlichen Killer, der sich als nächstes Opfer anscheinend Stones Freundin ausgesucht hat ...

Love this film, it has the right amount of humour, suspense and a bit out there seen it loads of times. I used to own this on VHS and wore the thing out, I like films like this and blade runner it has something about them you can watch loads of times.
Split Second stars a trench coat wearing, cigarette smoking, coffee addicted, bad-ass gun carrying Rutger Hauer (a Dutch legend, may he rest in peace) as Detective Harry Stone. Harry Stone is chasing a serial killer who killed his partner throughout the movie. The killer likes to take the hearts of his victims and leave occult like messages for Stone. But Stone isn't alone! He has a new partner called Dick! Such a badass duo! All this takes place in the 2008 version of London which doesn't look like the 2008 London we had. It is dark, cyberpunk like and has a lot of problems with a risen water level because of Global Warming. It looks very 90s. Anyway, Split Second clearly is one of those 90s B-movies but a very entertaining one. It is a bit overacted, it is dark, has loads of one-liners, Rutger Hauer has a pet pigeon, the film has a decent cast for a B-movie and Split Second has that 90s sci-fi feel which I always enjoy. If you like B-movies, this is one you certainly have to check out. Ps. Rutger Hauer showing his ID to a rottweiler is such an epic moment!
Fun B- movie. Had a lot of fun watching it.
Up until the beast actually shows itself in the film, which doesn't happen for at least 75% of the movie - it's full of leather, big guns, good cop/bad cop drama, and so many plot holes you can practically feel yourself taking on water. But, it's still a good time, with plenty of laughs - intentional or not, and a decent amount of gore.
Stumbled across this movie, so decided to give it a shot. I waited for it to get good and by the time I got to the end I was left with disappointment. I felt apathetic towards the main character because they were trying to make him a badass and instead made him out to just be an asshole. Bad acting aside, I believe if I had watched this when it initially came out I would have enjoyed it.
