Paul T. While the low budget and some egregious legacy casting prevents this film from fully realizing the potential of a solid script, Philippe delivers in a big way. A guilty pleasure for actioner fans. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/09/25 Full Review Peo C Saw the movie pop-up in Prime so I though why not. The story is ok, not great. But the acting is what makes this movie really bad and the fact that I made a account to tell you guys about it probably says enough. Vic Davis (Ryan Phillippe)(Shooter-good/The Lincoln lawyer-great) and Driver (Casper van Dien)(Starship Troopers-Cult Classic) are not bad actors, But how this movie is made gives the vibe that all scenes were done in one take. The audio is crap and in the fight scene's it's clearly done with (audio) after effects. I mean: How is it that when the hood of a car is burning you hear the sound of a hearth fire. (obviously wood) Man burning clearly covered with gel. Man get's shot and flies 6 feet in the air and the next guy drops down like he got hit by a baseball. Normally you watch a movie and think great/good/fine but you will see the f-ups when you see it for the second time. In this one you will think within 15 minutes "am I wasting my time?" With double the budget and a director how wants quality, this could have been a good, maybe great movie (some tweaks in the script needed to be honest). Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 10/14/24 Full Review Luis Fernando B That movie is a whole mess. Seeing it, one would líke that, even, the director were killed. Everything in this film is wrong. The fight scenes and the shoot-outs are so fake that the first thing that came to our mind, watching them, were the memories of childhood, when we played war in our backyard. Terrible movie, Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/08/24 Full Review Lon A It's not so bad. Lots of action and not badly acted. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 04/01/23 Full Review Kyle M Either you've seen enough action movies or not all the upper tiers, just to make out one's plan whether it recycles from another or it actually differentiates with its own combat. A lot of low-tier action films ran out and just kept going without a base. Brian Skiba apparently thought hard and presented an average action flick with some kinks put into the formula that fuels effective thrills and thumped disbelief of unsureness, therefore finding it engaging. The script and the performances are secondary for a reason but as supports building up the sequences coming up with good points to validate the significance while executed by stocks. Decently average and watchable, and if it does rank among the genre's contemporary turkeys, then this is the best. (B) Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/07/23 Full Review Gerry B The lack of continuity gets overshadowed by the lousy special effects, poor props and bad acting. I've seen better, more thought-out youtube videos. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 12/26/22 Full Review Read all reviews
