this movie has horrible of everything. horrible story, acting, cast, and action. this movie starts off with a guy that lost his memory and is chased by the FBI and everyone thinks what he saw he made up. they think he is crazy. but the FBI still wants him because he may know something about a mole in the mob. now we see that the fbi lied and he does know something. i got so confused.also the action. so he lost his memory but he still knows this martial art stuff. and you can barely follow the action. and then once the FBI finds him one agent and austin physciatrist go to a motel. they let him take a shower and somehow the largeness of austin he gets out of a small window. good job agent. then when the agent sees him walkin outside he points the gun at him from far away. austin and the agent keep movin forward. then as the agent is about to shoot the doctor hits the gun under the car. he doesn't run and go get austin instead he kneels down looking for the gun. and the somehow austin got it. hmm. go see the movies damage or expendables or hunt to kill with austin. not this

OK i own just about every DVD the wwe kicks out or that a wrestler stars in. for the most part they are OK or really good but id always say watchable, this however dear god. first of when you watch this movie you will be bored after the first ten minuets, then you will have a headache as the camera man was obviously the directors 10 year old son and had a.d.d and the characters including steve austins character are just forgettable. the plot is just none existent. all this was was some guy decide to to make a movie of a guy who hits people thats practically it. so if you are gonna watch this movie, well just don't seriously watch the trailer you will understand the plot for the entire movie and prob enjoy it more.

First off, I'm a huge Steve Austin fan. I think the work he has done so far, turning his career to acting has been good. This film however was the worst he has done so far but not because of Steve. I thought Steve himself was pretty good, using different languages and dealing with the complicated character. The Doctor played by Erica Cerra was also good but they were surrounded by some really awful acting! Adam Beach became painful to watch as the film went on.The camera work and directing was pretty poor too. The motorbike chase was poor and clearly being filmed at about 20 mph with a bit of shaky camera action to make it look faster. The film did not start well either. Because of the complicated character Steve portrayed, I found myself losing the plot about 10 minutes in because his illness had not been explained.The end of the film was better when everything comes together but it's too late by then. I'm sorry to say, most people would probably have turned off by then.So all in all, a great potential story, ruined by cheap effects and poor directing. The film is left open at the end and I would like to see the story continued but get a better crew in to work with Steve and up the budget! Steve Austin has a HUGE fan base who will be loyal to him no matter what he does. So filmmakers working with Steve, here is my advise: SPLASH THE CASH and make a dazzling movie! You will ALWAYS make money with Austin on board.I will always make time for Steve's work but he is better than this film. Bring on The Expendables!

First of, I am going to clearly state that I am not a fan of Steven Austin's acting, though this movie was less tolerable than the movie "The Condemned".Well, this movie didn't all together suck. It had a fairly average story. I sat through the entire movie, and was waiting for something big to happen. It sort of seems like the story wants to take on a bit too much at one time, and it doesn't come together fully throughout the movie. There was a relative good pace to the plot, and lots of action and fighting.However, the acting in the movie was mediocre at best. And here I am clearly hinting at Austin's performance.If you like action movies and you like Steve Austin, fine, go for this movie. But if you want action and doesn't really care about Austin, then you might be better off picking another movie entirely. There are lots of other actions movies out there, and far better ones as well.
