Very decent - low budget - high blood gory fight movie


I liked this movie showed Scott adkins at his best, shame it didn't have a bigger budget and cast but for a small production this showed Scott Adkins at his best.

Shame he doesn't get a big superstar movie release like kickboxer/bloodsport movie that put jean claude van damme on the map - Scot could shine - the closest was playing boyka but even then it was kinda of a limited movie.

I just got done watching it and I enjoyed it also. Not the greatest but certainly entertaining.

It's dumb fun for people who really are into cheap action movies. The dialogue is pretty cringey and it feels like the guy who made the movie hasn't really developed his writing abilities past 8th grade. However, he definitely has a penchant and a talent for action. The numerous brutal fighting scenes are very well staged and shot. By the look of it you could tell that he loves this stuff.

Although I enjoy the 80s action movies, their modern incarnation is not exactly my cup of tea, but, if in the right mood, I may watch something else by the same director or with the same lead.

Fun to watch, but ultimately forgettable.

6.0-6.5 / 10.

I disagree on the quality of the dialogue; it’s well above standard in this type of actioners.
