David A. Prior's "Relentless Justice" was made back-to-back with "The Deadliest Prey", but curiously it was released two years later. It's a very similar movie, with an invincible fighter (this time it's a woman, does that count as originality?) getting 'hunted' in the woods by the dumbest villains ever. Apparently our bad guys have been killing people for years, but their military tactics consist of splitting up for no reason and then patiently waiting to be murdered. How did they even keep this gig up for so long?

The main difference with "Deadliest Prey", on the other hand, is that this movie has a very leisurely pace. In "Deadliest Prey", it takes about two seconds before the action starts. Here, we get a full hour of time-wasting. Just when you think the fight scenes are coming, we suddenly get Eric Roberts in an utterly pointless sub-plot that seems to come from a different movie altogether. It's obvious Roberts agreed to do this movie after the script was already finished, but the same goes for Troy Donahue and Cameron Mitchell in the original "Deadly Prey". Their inclusion still felt somewhat natural, while the scenes with Roberts are just baffling. He shows up in this movie and then just disappears fifteen minutes later, having had no impact on the plot whatsoever.

In all fairness, the addition of some enjoyable B-list actors is pretty much the only thing this movie has going for it. Apart from Roberts, we also get vVernon Wells and Andrew Rolston to liven up the mood. Ted Prior is pretty entertaining as a villain as well, but there's only so much this ensemble can do with their stilted, repetitive dialogue and no character traits other than 'evil'. "Relentless Justice" is not a farewell that really sums up Prior's career. He wasn't a brilliant filmmaker, but he did always give the audience what it wanted. He does that for the last act, but the set-up is so boring and pointless that most people won't even get that far.

Such potential wasted. The story was quite entertaining but it was so badly done. C-list acting even with B-list Eric Roberts in his small role made this movie cringe worthy.

Don't believe the rating of over 6 - approx 3/4 of all votes are the value 8. If you take these out, the average rating is just 4 - and that is probably being over generous.

This movie has one dimensional characters and terrible acting. Don't waste your time.

Gotta say, I like the plot and think it could be a good movie, but this??? I believe that if a prospective film student submitted this to a film school for admission, the admissions staff would laugh their asses off!

The dialog and characters are exceptionally hackneyed and shallow. The unoriginality is truly astounding as is the horrid directing. Even decent actors couldn't pull off the cheesy lines, many of which are so silly - it's comical. Don't get me wrong though, there may be some good actors in the movie, but absolutely NO good acting. I've literally seen better performances from high school musicals.

I think this movie is perfect for a drinking game where everyone takes a sip every time there is a stale line, plot twist or ridiculous sequence... better use a low alcohol drink though, as this could be quite dangerous.
