Mike Riggins was rotting in a Russian prison when he is offered immediate release if he will rescue abducted American Ana. Though Mike makes quick work of his mission, he discovers that the kidnapping story was a lie when the government, the paramilitary, and the mafia all come gunning for him. Now, as his enemies close in from all sides, Mike attempts to uncover the truth about Ana and keep her out of harm's way. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Why oh why do these old guys keep making these crap action films?? I downloaded it, surely no one would actually buy this!!! Its the usual thing, Dolph killing loads of bad guys and saving the girl, he gets beaten up abit and shot in the arm of course but that pretty much happens to every tough guy in every tough guy action flick LOL Effects and stunts are crap apart from afew reasonable car smashes but its nothing we haven't seen before and the acting is.....well.....dire haha Forget it, its shit, just like Van Damme and Seagal, Dolph keeps rolling out one turd after another and somehow manages to be able to keep doing it!! Surely he must know he's making straight to the trash heap crap!!?
