Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
Francene Odetta It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
Matt Kracht The plot: A former marine, trying to find out what happened to his friend, runs up against racist vigilantes.I've never actually been that big of a Val Kilmer fan, but I'm willing to watch his movies. Unfortunately, as some people have already mentioned, this movie shares more than a few similarities to Steven Seagal's direct-to-video movies. It's got a left-leaning political message, an aging and out-of-shape movie star, and some truly awful dialogue.I'm not going to lie. This is not a good movie. It's completely lacking in subtlety, one of the characters goes on a long political rant in the middle of the movie, and the fight choreography was not very impressive. However, I agree with the politics, I like Gary Cole, and I guess I'm a sucker for these cheesy direct-to-video movies. I'm willing to overlook a lot of things as long as I don't get bored.I can't really recommend this movie to other people, but I found it a lot more tolerable than most reviewers. If you're a liberal, you're looking to waste 90 minutes, and you're a fan of Val Kilmer... well, maybe then you might want to see this movie, but you'd still have to be pretty desperate.
gretz-569-323863 I watched this on a Saturday afternoon while doing laundry, and that's about what it's good for. don't expect "Citizen Kane." movies like this require some suspension of disbelief. plot holes you could drive the proverbial truck through, characters behaving in ways no real human being would ever behave...you have to be able to say "Oh well, at least I'll see some stuff get blown up." and you will, so it's all good.most of the fight scenes seem to have been filmed in a forest fire, with shadows and smoke obscuring much of the action--or, more precisely, non-action, since as other reviewers have noted, Val Kilmer's character is able to beat bad guys to a pulp without ever striking a blow.you will also have to ignore some knee-jerk lefty politics. yeah yeah, illegal immigrants good, Halliburton bad...we get it. but the plot is so tenuous it really doesn't matter.in summary: if it's on free cable, watch it; you'll be moderately entertained for an hour or so.
qormi Val Kilmer sleep walks through this film as if he's just lost his best friend. He is so portly that this movie would resemble a spaghetti western where the hero ate all of the spaghetti. There is even a nude scene where Kilmer, encased in hairless blubber, is laid out on a tile floor naked. Never before have I seen such phony fight scenes. Bad guys rush Kilmer but are mysteriously thrown to the ground by a telekinetic force. This happens over and over again. The overweight hero walks into town and speaks to the semi attractive woman at the "lending" library. Why not just "library"? Don't all libraries imply the word "lending" without saying it? Anyway, this woman practically throws her back out and makes ridiculous facial contortions as she flirts shamelessly with our corpulent hero. He takes it all in stride, as if it happens all the time; his face never deviating from a depressing scowl. I would have thought he'd enter the sandwich shop or the nearest deli before looking for a book. And the entire movie looks as if it were shot with a video camera; it probably was. Pathetic.
Mamou317 This is one of the worst movies I have ever seen. I was HIGHLY disappointed by the acting, especially from Val Kilmer....he's a much better actor than the job he does in this movie.I was also disappointed in the so-called special effects they had in this movie. To me, this movie looked like a garbage low-budget 80s flick that we can definitely live without.I think this movie even gives small, corrupt, towns a bad name because the acting was so bad in it, lol. I honestly can't recall a worse movie, acting-wise, than this one since this movie was supposed to be a serious movie.I just want to know what was going through Val Kilmer's mind when he accepted this role. He's far too talented to lower his standards so much....at least I thought so.
