Justin T There were some inconsistencies between the different cameras used but overall I didn't mind. I think that it looked pretty sweet! Well delivered surround sound and clear crisp dialogue help the experience. The story wasn't that great but what made it great was the action and silly fun. It was like Gamer (2009) but much better due to the entertaining cast, fast pace, setting and general endearing quality. The bigger gripes come from the double-decker bus chase, you could tell that they didn't have the budget to pull it off convincingly and the concept of rich people betting on a blood-sport which has been done so many times before. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/23/23 Full Review carlos t Minha opinião: Um filme de muita ação e tiros. Uma disputa entre assassinos e aquele que vencer o torneio irá ganhar uma bolda. Nem todos querem participar, mas são forçados. Exemplo Kelly e o falso padre Robert. E o filme segue com muita ação, várias armadilhas. Até que chega o embate final. Um filme para quem curte muito sangue, vale apena assistir. Roteiro: boa Vale apena assistir? Sim Nota: 7,5 Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Audience Member A gory shoot-em-up with a decent number of explosions for a budget film. This is not as artistic as John Wick, but it feels like it has a touch of the Wicks about it. It is an action film dominated by shooting and some hand-to-hand combat. For a budget film it does surprisingly well and has a range of explosions, car crashes and most particularly, quite gory deaths with plenty of blood and exploding flesh. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Entertaining... Cound have been better tho. Violene and shootings, the usual fun stuff, but nothing new. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Pretty awesome little action exploitation flick. Plot's not very original, but it's great fun. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member This was a much better movie than is indicated. Granted, the plot was poor but the action scenes were top notch. Best of all, the main character was a Chinese hit woman (Kelly Hu) who develops a conscience and finds herself protecting a priest who is in the wrong place at the very worst time. Kelly Hu is fantastic!!! She IS the best casting possible for that character: super sexy, super lethal, somehow still vulnerable but in an invulnerable way. Watch the movie, you'll know what I mean. If you're a fan of female martial arts heroes and really insane action, you will enjoy this movie. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews
