Baseshment I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.
Isbel A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Delight Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.
jeffreyliberty The shake camera is the cheesiest most nauseating method of trying to fake action that there is.The plot was good and have several surprises and the action kept you going. I thought it was also very realistic from a political point of view.Some stupidity was present and unnecessary such as the trigger for the bomb in her hand not being allowed to be released yet seeing her in many scenes running with her hands wide open only later to see that somewhere along the line it had been taped firmly to her hand ... lolThis movie was worthy of a strong 7 if it were not for this director's addiction to this derelict practice of shaking the camera to blur the scene permitting the cover-up of poorly executed stunts and fight scenes etc.I sincerely believe that any director who uses this in films should be banned from directing any film ever again.
defucter When I first read the synopsis, I thought, "Are they serious?" So it sounds a tad far-fetched. So maybe more than a *tad. But overall, this was a decent action flick. The best ever? No. But better than many I've watched. It feels like a 24 type movie--when the school phone rang with the 24 scene-change ring-tone, I had to chuckle. This flick lacks Jack Bauer, but the characters are likable, and the actors did great with what they had to work with, though I've never heard of any of them. Many action actors can fight but they can't act. Not true with Matthew Reese. I haven't seen anything else he's been in, but he did a good job with his part. Jennifer Klekas was a hot damsel in distress and she kicked some a$$, too. Although the storyline could be improved to make it more believable, the lines worked with this story. But how many action flicks are all that believable anyway? If you like 24 or some of Jean-Claude's flicks or anything from the Die Hard franchise, you'll probably enjoy this movie. The action sequences were fast-paced and raw. Mostly hand-to-hand combat and not really any explosions. There was a blend of evasion, shooting, and mixed-martial arts. One realistic thing about this movie is the number of bad guys the hero took on simultaneously. It wasn't like a Chuck Norris film where guys stand in a circle holding their guns and only attack one at a time. A Navy Seal could have reasonably handled the amount of assailants that came at this guy. If you're looking for a deeper storyline or character development, keep looking. But enjoy this movie for what it is...a lone hero saves the day. Kudos to the cast and crew for putting together a decent flick on a presumably low(er) budget.
Teks9 Let me be clear, this is not the movie of the year but this is a decent action movie. Forget the storyline, the acting (which is below average), but for your time you will get: - Some very good fighting scenes: well choreographed, realistic, well paced and above all properly edited. Remember movies such as RE: Apocalypse where you couldn't tell which move was being performed by Ms Jovovich? Well this is the opposite, old style brutal fighting scenes. - A decent spec-op style intro sequence - A very beautiful red hair damsel in distress - One very angry muscular hero. That's it, so you are warned. Go watch it if you like a good "kill you in two moves" kinda film. Otherwise, hit the road.
MickyFin Having watched this film last night, it started off at a pace detailing the background, and character build of Michael, an ex Navy Seal, and what he had been through.Five years on from what happened in North Korea, his past comes back to haunt him, in a peculiar twist of events, which even now having watched the film, still cannot understand, how, and why.Not too bad a film, some good fighting sequences, but overall, plot, storyline, and acting are quite poor, although, as said, the fighting sequences are what make this film, but thats about it. So if you like martial arts, then this film maybe for you, but don't get your hopes up on a great ending. I was kind of deflated when I realized the film neared its end.
