A big budget blockbuster shot for $35,000? Yeah THAT'S going to work.

That's the trailer to this cheaply, cheaply done flick. Don't think I'll waste my time especially when you consider the fact that movies always show the best parts in the previews.

Hmm, have to admit that they really, really needed a friend in the military to show them how to move efficiently and handle weapons for the purposes of this film. If you're going to make an action movie with characters spending a lot of screen time handling guns and moving about in combat then it's a basic planning necessity. It's contrasted here in the muscles bared in two of the actors arms (the characters moving around in environments where covering up bare skin against pollution materials is a necessity?) seeming to insinuate many 'soft' hours on a weights bench, rather than gained through strenuous athletic exercise that is a necessity to surviving many combat situations and still remaining alive at this point in the stories timeline. A low budget films credibility takes a dive when I see issues like this. There's been enough conflicts since Desert Storm to at least have one of their friends serve in the military, surely?
