I like original movies and this one is. The villain arrives at earth to creates drugs from humans. Great concept, and this drug dealer has some nasty weapons too boot. Good story line, with a odd couple teaming up to solve the problem. In the end, this movie is crazy enough for a entertaining 2 hour. Mike's pick I give it a 7!
You can say what you want about Dolph Lundgren - yes, he's made some HORRIBLE movies and at times can make Keanu Reeves look talented - but I Come in Peace is a sizeable cut above the rest of his body of work. The plot is OK, has a few interesting touches but just as many derivative ones, but that's not what makes this film so good. It is the entertaining interaction of Lundgren and Brian Benben - their constantly ripping each other and acting macho, it's hilarious. And the other supporting characters are fun to watch, too, from Matthias Hues as the one note alien heavy, to Jay Bilas as the alien good guy, to the hilarious Mark Lowenthal as Bruce, the paranoid scientist genius. Even Lundgren gets into the act with some awesome one-liners that even Ah-nuld would be proud to have uttered. A 5-star B-movie classic!
I saw this movie recently...n i bet this is one of the best movie Dolph Lundgren has ever acted in. Dolph acts as a tough cop fighting the drig mafia, suddenly large amounts of drugs have been stolen from the mafias & non drug addicts are also being killed...n the movie takes a turn from action to a sci-fi thriller. If u really are a Dolph Lundgren fan..u would'nt like to miss this one..
A renegade cop (You know the kind)teams up with a straight arrow FBI agent to take down a drug dealer from outer space. Seems our villain of the peace extracts the brains (Juiced up on heroin) to sell back on his turf for cash. Also aiding our heroes is an alien cop. Dolph Lundgren movies can never be judged the same as other types of movies. Movies like I Come In Peace exist only to provide visceral thrills and little else, on the basis of this I Come In Peace does provide an adequate way for fans to enjoy the action. Also I Come In Peace has it's share of twists which blend well with the action.
* *1/2 out of 4-(Pretty good)

You've got to like 80's Sci-Fi to really appreciate movies like this. I rank it right up there with Terminator, Hawk The Slayer, The Guyver, Highlander, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles for good, hilarious sci-fi fun.
No, I don't think the mainstream public would like a movie like this, but if you like B-rated horror movies & sci-fi, then you should find this one to your liking too. Beastmaster, Krull, and many other movies from that era come to mind when I see this one.
Wonder if it's available on DVD yet....nope. Darn. Maybe one day.
8 out of 10 stars.

- Alternate versionsDue to Ascot Filmverleih targeting a "not under 16" rating from the FSK, the German theatrical version was cut to reduce violence in a few scenes. The uncut version was later released on video, though despite the "not under 18" rating, it was light indexed in Germany by the BPjM from 1991 up until 2016. Shortly after being de-indexed, the FSK have since re-rated the uncut version to "not under 16".
