Kam Williams NewsBlaze Michael Jai White makes a convincing case here that he deserves future consideration as an action star on the order of a Vin Diesel or a Sylvester Stallone. Rated: 2.5/4 Sep 19, 2009 Full Review Read all reviews

Mark K Despite the good audience ratings, I was not expecting much from a film like this but gave it a shot and I'm happy I did. The story was a good one and the director did a good job relaying the story, the acting was surprisingly good, and the fight scenes and skill level was second to none. The fight scenes were amazing and the lead actor is surely a few short steps away from being cast in a high budget action film. Job well done by all involved! Highly recommended! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/09/24 Full Review BIGG S Love the fight scenes Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/21/24 Full Review Khalan C This film is an love note to martial artists and action films. I quite enjoyed the film even though it relished in cliques and ahem stereotypes. I would not mind an sequel at all. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/21/23 Full Review John T If you want to see White's martial arts prowess, see this movie. The man is awesome and I really don't undertand why no one has picked him for a superhero movie (he would be the perfect Luke Cage (Power Man) for Marvel); I know he played Spawn but that was ages ago before the comicbook movie craze. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/06/23 Full Review Audience Member I have to give it a higher score then I might otherwise just because their inspiration was such a brilliant movie. Hard Times. Such a brilliant character and story, that it was only a matter of time before a film inspired from that classic happened, and given Jai is a true honest badass so it was an honest attempt at honoring that film... It's missing some core elements, but it also definitely has more advanced level of fighting.... it likely could have done with a better director and cinematographer... and the dialogue is often too true to the source, when it should have been updated a little better. But because I loved the original so much, figure 4 stars just for that... Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Michael Jai White is the tide that floats all boats and everything about this film floats at a very high level. Kudos to MJW, the rest of the cast and filmmakers which include the crew—this is a well made film. MJW is as good action gets, no need to compensate with effects, he's the real deal.
