Storyline

Short Review

I can think of countless reasons why this movie isn't worth a second of you time and none in favour of watching it. It might be the most unrealistic film I've ever watched and I thrive on watching straight to dvd films. It would take me all night to list every reason why this film is less enjoyable to watch than a peta video about dog fur farms so I'll only give a few; nobody fights like that and the helmets/armour protect you from the impact of bullets, The fact that they're being knocked out with a punch is a joke. Every weapon swing/punch is the most telegraphed attack in any film. who in the f*** hooks to stab with a knife? The entire film is littered with the generic fight scene trope where the bad guys cease to exist until the first wave have been eliminated "better wait for the good guy to knock out my mate before I attack him". The Big crime boss might as well have bad guy tattooed on his forehead because he is the definition of a cliche. The entire film is just terrible and yet it doesn't even have the "bad movie" thing going for it. To summarise, This movie is a steaming pile of dog c** and I wouldn't watch it again if I had to choose between that and wan**** with a smashed up light bulb then feeding a live cable down my n**. The fact that Dolph Lundgren went from Rocky to this is a tragedy and that's saying something because Rocky was sh*** as well.
