Better than the rating suggests


Anyone else agree ?

It's entertaining and it contains the many reasons why i like action movies.

It's not bad. Despite numerous quibbles I could make with the action staging, it was fundamentally sound enough to hold interest. Dolph was good, Michael was adequate, and Gina May was just wonderful. In fact Gina alone was basically enough to keep me watching.

I'll admit that you know you're in trouble with the acting in any movie where Dolph is doing far above any of the other male actors, but there was enough novelty and twists in the plot to make it very watchable. The action, though thoroughly absurd in many places, was enjoyable.

Yea i agree with ya Viva_Chiba. I gave it a 6/10 actually. And i totally agree with u too fnj2002. Kinda read my mind. Lol now what's absurd is the many shots to the grill of the cars when they only be 5ft from each other and not hittin a G**damn thing in a chase scene. I grow a bit impatient when they tend to do this over n over n over n over n over.....n over again. I mean, come on....but yet i digress
