The action film genre is saturated so everyone wants to see a good movie. Some productions are quality-paced and well-choreographed, with edge-of-your-seat excitement and intrigue. The Raid comes to mind. Equally, some are produced with a fraction of the budget of the big franchises such as Bond, Mission: Impossible, and Bourne. One can also be lured into the false belief that a noteworthy cast, including Alain Moussi and Stephen Dorff, will usher in the delivery of a great movie. Unfortunately, this film misses the mark. Perhaps the writing was on the cards with casting Frank Grillo. Aside from his supporting role in Winter Soldier, he appears to drift from one mediocre film to another.
Appearing fashioned with a twist on films such as Kickboxer and Mortal Komabt franchises, this is by no means the worst action movie you’ll see but it certainly isn’t the best. Putting aside a questionable plot, it remains a bearable 90 minutes of brain-free, popcorning eating time out from the worries of the real world.
