    I've always liked Lundgren, kinda low budget affairs in the same vein as Van Damme... usually set in Europe somewhere which is always a good point for me too and this with no exception is set in Russia... cool!
    Great views... good action... wooden acting and lots of blood splattering fun!
    A great way to while away a saturday nite of dvd viewage!

    Advertised to be Dolph Lundgren as this Russian Badass - falls WAY short. Slow-motion scenes throughout to supposedly make it more dramatic....stick to bad acting Dolph!!

    I saw the previews for this movie and thought it would be pretty sweet, i was wrong. It does have a lot of potential though they just didn't do it well. 85% of the scenes fade out and it gets really annoying. The dialogue is pretty weak, as is the acting. The action is pretty good and the final fight scene is pretty awesome, other than the fact that it drags on and fades out right in the middle. Not an overall great movie.

    This has been one of the best stylishly executed movies made on DTDVd market. Dolph gave a cool direction...
