Darc

Great movie for the genre. DARC is an interesting character, I wish they evolved it a bit better. But overall the action scenes where amazingly shot. Warning, this is not a movie with a happy ending. True rating is a 6/10 for the genre, then again, what's a 7 or 8 or 9 or even a 10 anymore these days? If you like Martial Arts, sword play, Yakuza, then you should enjoy this.

...then I'd recommend you to watch this one, too. It's like John Wick on a budget, but not a really tight one, just on a budget. The lead actor will surprise you, I never saw him perform before and was expecting a cardboard cutout, Disney attraction animatronic quality perfomance, but ended up nailing everything perfectly. Famous actor Armand Assante also pulls a great performance despite the fact that he doesn't have a lot of screen time. The rest of the cast seem to have done what they were requested just as well, too.

Down-to-earth action sequences without ballet-alike martial art choreographies or 10-minute long duels, isn't shy with blood & gore whenever they should be there, gritty script-called events, and barely no time, if any at all, wasted on useless, boring, car chases.

Simple plot, but well carried. Pacing is good.

Bottom line, this movie aims to entertain and hits the bullseye. If you're into action movies, this one's for you hands down.

Saw this on a dvd. The trailer was amazing n the film a solid action packed entertainment. The plot is from the 80's. This is the director's first film as a director. Most of the Steven Seagal's 90's film's were produced by this director. So obviously a lottuva cliches n of course the one man take down the whole nasty business. This film has plenty of hand fights, gun shot sequences n some amazing sword fight too. Basically a yakuza film without the katana n tattoos would look fugazi. The male lead lacked the muscles n was a bit unconvincing cos the film never showed how he learnt sword fighting or hand combat. I found the actress Dawn Olivieri attractive. Will be watching Traffik only cos of her.

Except the chic Ivy, well no spoiler, but none of the stuff she does would ever happen in real life. Watch the movie and youll see. She officially became my dream woman lol

Boring movie and nothing was unexpected !

Story is an old fashioned one
