The beginning of this movie was fashioned after a popular online video game. I don't play it so can't comment but the dialog does a good job with introducing the characters and how they view their jobs. And I like that final shot of the opening sequence where he shoots the bad guy in the heart but has to shoot through his bosses shoulder to get at it. I think it reveals another side of his character that would not have been evident in the movie otherwise.And in response to whether or not Tom Wrights ad lib should have been cut out? I liked it and thought it was a good addition.As for the rest of the movie? It would be my life's dream just to produce something half this good.

Being an action film, Striking Range kept the mood going throughout with its brilliant sound effects and editing. The music and the start of the film was awesome. Music was great and the film had its action going throughout. The first seven minutes was the best in the film. It set the mood which is what its supposed to do. The action scene with Lou Diamond Phillips and Tom Wright with a matter-of-fact discussion while facing San Banarje (the hot mafia guy) was amazing. I wish we had seen more of Banarje who brought so much energy and color to the scene. Overall it was a great film and for action slick lovers this is a must see movie. Great work by Daniel Millican. And all you Lou Diamond Phillips fans out there, this is a comeback for him. He has his million dollar smile going and he is hotter than ever.

This movie is a great use of Dallas talent (crew and actors). This movie proves that Dallas is a contender in film-making. Scarlet McAlister gives one of her best performances! The camera work is great, the effects are realistic and the story is interesting. Plus there's a great twist. This movie proves that if you have a good story and a great crew and actors, you don't need a huge Hollywood budget. This movie is fast paced, exciting and fun to watch! For a low budget movie this is remarkable. Great Job! I'll be watching for your next film! Support your independent filmmakers - Rent Striking Range! You won't be sorry.

What's the point of having a movie on DVD? It has to be entertaining enough to let you want to watch it more than just two or three times. Thanks to the amazing creativity and enthusiasm of Director Daniel Millican and the whole cast and crew Striking Range definitely has all the necessary ingredients: outstanding performances of Troy Baker, Glenn Morshower and Yancy Butler, Lou Diamond Phillips and Tom Wright managing it perfectly to pull the audience on their sides, an intriguing plot with surprising twists, long, thrilling sequences, fast-paced action, hard, fast and straight fight scenes, dry jokes, great video and soundtrack, a brilliant sound design and what I call "some ideas" aka something unusual, like in this case for instance all the cool high-quality F/X goodies, which I had never seen in a low-budget independent production before.When you start watching Striking Range, it will capture you within a few minutes and won't let you go until the closing credits start rolling. Striking Range is an excellent action thriller to enjoy together with friends, thankfully the DVD finally hit the stores ... and my player.
