GodAwful Movie. Avoid.

Ok. Let's be fair. Whoever was handling all the cars and lorries
knew what they were doing.

The rest though, the direction acting and script, were
terrible. A typical scene would have the bad guys firing sub-machine
guns and shotguns at the good guys, the good guys replying in kind,
the bad guys driving off, and the good guys just watching them go.
No going off in pursuit, no getting on the radio.

If you are unwise enough to rent this stuff, have your fast-forward
finger oiled and ready.

I watched this not expecting a lot of reading a lot of negative reviews and it really surprised me. Yes the plot is very thin and is just an excuse to rack up a body count and a ton of chase sequences and action set pieces. But all of these are professionally handled and very entertaining and the scenery is beautiful and makes a nice change to the usual urban locations of those flicks. I did think the brutality of the villains acts was a tad too much for a flick of this kind, but overall I really enjoyed it and would certainly recommend it.
