Rubbish

A Customer from Wales, 10th October, 2007

What a load of rubbish. Was so disappointed with this film. It was very slow and boring. Half way through we turned it off. If you were thinking of renting this - I wouldn't bother!!!

Is it Seagal? Is it Snipes? No, it's a washed up has-been.

A Customer from Manchester, England., 8th August, 2007

An extremely dull entry from the Snipes-conveyer belt of low-quality 'action' films. He's not quite at the level of Seagal yet, but a few more like this... He's been on a downward trajectory since the huge let-down that was Blade 3 and this isn't going to do him any favours. How is it that somebody whose reputation is built upon starring in action films can get away with making action films totally devoid of action?

A Customer from London, 14th March, 2010

Badly directed, badly edited, music wrongly used at the essential moments - the movie has been destroyed by all the above.
