Yawn. Some people fight.Yawn. Some more fights Yawn. Dull plot twist yawn. Poor overacting.Yawn. Not sure what happened, eyes heavy cant stay awake.Snoooooooooooooooooooooooore!!!! Yes that best explains my experience of watching the Purifiers, one of the dullest British, ney FILMS ever. And I have sat through Val Kilmer in the Saint and Dr Moreux. Kilmer in Batman Forever. Mortal Komat 2. Now and Then. Matrix 2 & 3.And you know what NOT ONE OF THEM came close to this.Oh and its a rip of off the Warriors with the same ideas done on a lot less money. See the other film instead. SEE ANYOTHER FILM instead!

This film is pretty bad. Directed by 16 Years Of Alcohol's Richard Jobson this film tries hard to be a modern retake on The Warriors but ends up more like a film version of the ZX Spectrum computer game Renegade (but with worse graphics).Getting past the glaringly obvious inaccuracies in the story, the films biggest flaw is the fact the every action scene is in slow motion. The logic behind this is baffling. It takes what would be a 40 min film and makes it clock in at a rather boring hour and a half. And even then what is left is badly put together and brings back memories of poor 80's action films (step up Don Wilson) But beyond even that no one seems to care.Alexander sleep walks through the film, 'Lord Of The Rings' Monaghan just looks bored and the talented support cast hardly get a look in.In short this film is just appalling and has the privilege (in my opinion) of being the worse film funded by the UK lottery fund yet… and that's saying something!

Wow. Just . . . Wow. It's movies like this that make me wonder how some people even began to think they could get anywhere in the business.This is one of the worst movies I have ever seen. Ever. The way this movie was directed has "omg, I think I'm a freaking genius" splotched all over it, but sadly, nobody but this lame director will agree with that.The absolute *worst* part of this film is the editing. It's atrocious. Shots that should be longer are WAY too short, and shots that should be shorter are WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY too long. I mean... I'm seriously astonished here. What were they thinking? The second worst part of this film is the fighting - if you call it fighting. It's sad. Really. It will make you depressed.Man, and to think I wasted almost an hour and a half of my precious time on this. Reader, do yourself a favor and don't even go near this... This "film", as it claims to be.

I was casually shelving movies at my work today (a blockbuster store) and I saw a movie that caught my eye as I saw the words "From Lost" on it. So I picked it up, expecting it to have some minor character from lost in it considering I had never heard of the movie before when … A movie with Dom in it about martial Arts… How could it not be awesome!?!? Well… Unfortunately, to tell the truth, I thought it is pretty bad. I wanted to like it, and I tried my best, but it was just so boring! To tell the truth I only watched 3/4 of it… I just could not make myself watch the end it was that bad. I could probably bring myself to watch the end or the whole movie again... but only if every single other movie in the world decided to spontaneously combust.I know everybody had their own opinion but honestly… and I am not just saying this but I do not think any body would like this film. I think this is the reason I had never heard of it… cause it is was not that successful. -Annika
