    Thanks to master Stallone`s "The Expendables" I remembered that there was an ultimate action hero that I used to cheer in my childhood called Dolph Lundgren. When I knew that this film is showing on TV I actually sat down and watched just for the sake of old times and it didnot d...( read more)issapoint after all. Your typical straight to DVD action fun with alot of dead bodies that I failed to count the number of the bodies a thing that I do in such films, some explosions and hand to hand combat in which Dolph kicks whatever stands in his way. Please donot ask about the plot,the storyline and the character development these things are found in the lame sissy films not here. Genre fans will probably enjoy.(Do you know that he managed to shoot 3 guys while having his hands tied behind his back! fun haa)

    Lundgren should be given a special award for services to shite scripts

    The car chasing scenes were directed in such a horrible way, but the script it self was not bad and Dolph is always wonderful! Oh, I loved the Punisher shirt on one of the bad guys. I know they did that b/c of Dolph, he is and always will be the Punisher!
