Woah, this has a great cast!


Michael Madsen, Wes Bentley, Mackenzie Rosman, Cary-Hiroyuki Tagawa, and Eric Roberts are all great actors! I might see this just because they're all in it!

On IMDb, trolls cannot understand these two words, OPINION and LEAVE.

Don't waste your timer or money on account of these names. Bentley is the only one whose character is actually relevant (he's the hero). The rest are either plot devices or excuses to get the B-list name of the actor into the credits. For example, neither Eric Roberts or Michael Madsen's character has any necessary function in the story at all. Their roles could have been played by any actor or eliminated altogether without affecting the plot or the quality of the movie. The only reason they were cast was to add credibility to something that doesn't deserve it otherwise, and your response proves the plan worked. Mackenzie Rosman is pleasant to look at, but her role is nothing but a plot device. She is introduced as though her character is going to have some kind of added significance, but that angle is immediately dropped and she becomes a generic tool for the villain. Her character could just as easily have been a young boy, an old woman, or even a dog for that matter and fulfilled the same function in the story. This abundance of red herrings and dead end characters is one several weaknesses in a very weak movie.
