The best things about this movie are the beautiful scenery and cinematography and the top-notch acting from both Hicks and Bryhan. But what is it all for? Everyone knows the plot: Somebody killed my (insert loved one) so I'm going to kill him. Have we not seen this a thousand times? Is it really different when shot in the wilderness? I almost turned of the movie after the bear mauling scene. What troubled me about it is that a supposedly experienced hunter would be unaware that you have to flee if you see a bear knowing she has bear cubs, and if the bear attacks, you're supposed to lie still. Also from what I know an experienced hunter would be able to tell that a bear was in the vicinity and would leave.

The movie improved in the last half because the action heated up and there was more dialogue. James Bryhan and Warren Hicks deserves an award for their acting skills. There was some minor drama involving a third character, who reminded me a lot of Forest Gump! ( Run Forest Run).

Still a good movie to sit on your couch with a beer.

If you're a fan of martial arts films from the 80's and 90's, then this beast is for you.

Starring Sunny Pang, this film has all the right moves.

Fight scenes are brilliant and it's good to see so many varied and differing styles used.

Plenty of gory death scenes and imaginative characters make this film a worthy watch.

I enjoyed some of the characters. Igor was a one man killing machine and I sat on the edge of my seat when he appeared, just to see how he would dispatch his next victim and believe me, there were so many ways!

Kato Plasma was pure hardcore . A man who liked and enjoyed his evil, twisted , monstrous ways and I loved him! One guy you wouldn't want to meet down a dark alleyway, or any alleyway for that matter.

Reminded me somewhat of Arnie's The running man but with more blood and guts and a few more dysfunctional players.

Go and check it out.

Oh my! Where do i start? I adored this film.

From the storyline to the performances . Everything about this film brought a new sense and dusted off the feelings I had as a viewer about a drugs film.

Fresh, innovative . This film gave new eyes on an old story and had me surprised by how i felt for the drug abuser Cooks. I felt for him like a mother feels for her son. The acting was oscar worthy to me. Each and every actor performed with such realism.

Imran was horrific, in a good way. A bad guy that you wanted to hate but was oh so charming. Danny , the undercover guy was tormented and agonized by his choices which made the story, especially with his handler Collins, who seemed to want to protect Danny, but at the same time ,put his feelings aside to get Danny to do his job. I really liked their relationship and if i have any criticism, it would be that i would've liked to see Danny and Collins interact more other than work. They really sold the movie as well as Cooks for me.
