Scott Adkins was great in such badass roles like Undisputed 2 & 3 A lot of new Martial Arts and Action Projects like Hard Target 2 witch has noting to do with Jean Claude Van Damme film or the new Undisputed IV movie witch it looks mad in my opinion Scott Adkins is great actor honesty if you guys are action go and check this movie out !

The only reason I give it a 3 is because there are moments things are acceptable. Those are the moment the camera work and angles are on par and the scenery and colors are actually quite nice! Chunks of the fighting action can even be called decent as well.What ruins a movie for me is when things that shouldn't cost additional (or much more) budget money to make it much better. Things such bad scripting in which things are added in (at cost!!) that just puts down any form of IQ higher then 85.. When a movie starts zooming in on the faces with a 'shaky' effect added, it is time to start the 'i give this 2 minutes to get better' timer. Whom ever invented the notion that 'shaky' cam effect adds to a shot should actually be SHOT and so should the people who keep it going.Then you get (again at cost!) a completely USELESS intro of the Mexican cartel driving in three cars. I think like 8 people are being introduced, by very original nicknames i must add (sigh), as if we are about to watch a Quintin Tarantino master piece in which we need to get to know the characters...while in fact by the time you see the fourth face and name you already forgot about the previous ones.Bad scripting, dumb story, bad framing, bad directing and producing.I will stop my review here as it simply is not worth more effort. This is simply yet another movie of SO MANY nowadays that is just ruined by poor management of resources and by assuming the general population has the development of a 12 year old and the IQ of 85 or lower. They had the budget, they had decent actors, they had GORGEOUS scenery and they had GREAT equipment / camera / sound. You must simply suck at what you do to end up with a production such as this.

I personally felt that the was cheesy and very poorly acted out... it was like watching a movie with brand new actors who had no idea what they were doing...the beginning just looked so fake he kills with a knife a bunch of people and there is no blood any where but a little drip on his hand.... and the fighting looked so fake... like the other people were not even trying... and the other guys just stood there not helping waiting for their turn... the trailer looked good... and the story line would had been great if the acting its self was better and the fights were more realistic or not so fake looking... ans the dialogue just came off so fake and set up.. not real... not like it was really going on it was more like it was all set up,....

They had about 60 minutes worth of story, and padded it out with long shootouts.And more long shootouts through what looked like drywall.Which should have ended the "standoff" in about 3 minutes, with the folks on the other side of the drywall dead.Then they padded some more, by (tiniest of SPOILER) giving us an interminable (and terribly acted) scene full of meaningful glares in a moving vehicle. Stretching the scene out, even more, with freeze frames and supplying us with the names of the disposable bad guys. Names that had no importance or meaning to the rest of the film. At all. Which is too bad, really, as I have a suspicion that Scott Adkins might actually be able to pull off a good leading role if he had an actual script to work with. And perhaps an actual director who wasn't trying to channel Sergio Leone meets Shaw Brothers.Had the potential to be a decent, gut-bucket B-movie, but the delusions of being better than it was defeated everyone involved.
