Spartan gets a ticket for each word, gathers a pile of tickets in his hand, and announces that he now has the paper he needs. Those lighter, impish moments are what give "Demolition Man" many of its more appealing qualities. Spartan, needing toilet paper, walks up to a wall-mounted misdemeanor dispenser and calmly speaks multiple cuss words at it. In one of the film's funnier scenes, Sgt. Stallone capably plays a brusque buffoon who has to get used to a world where he wasn't welcome. Sandra Bullock, in full Sandra Annette Bullock, (born July 26, 1964, Arlington, Virginia, U.S.), American actress and film producer known for her charismatic energy and wit onscreen, especially as girl-next-door characters in romantic comedies. The action is great, and the sci-fi intriguing, but the culture clash is where its heart lies. Overall, however, Brambilla's film is a comedy first.

It may have an essayic undercurrent of conservatism run amok, and the dangers of a right wing-extrapolated utopia (it came out during the Clinton administration, but the fears lingered).

Indeed, the spirit of prankstership likely informed "Demolition Man" as a whole. Golf tees up his nose, and Bullock is at ease.

While Stallone may not have been a student of the Meisner technique, he clearly had enough wherewithal to keep the tone on set light, and to retain his sense of humor.
