Dívida de Sangue

Actually, this Grade B film wasn't too bad, considering it's just that: Grade B. As one reviewer aptly points out, when the writer decides he's also going to be the lead actor, that's kind of sign the film may not be that great! I wonder if Corey Michael Eubanks also sold popcorn at the theaters during showings?

This is pretty routine but it had a few intense action scenes, such as the beginning. How many people are escapees using a bus? And getting away! Come on!!!!

After that interesting beginning, the film bogs down deeper and deeper and - snore - deeper, mainly because of the dumb romance angle with the typical no- brained, jealous, spoiled bully boyfriend.

There are so many "Payback" movies that surely you can find one a lot better than this one.

This "Payback" film has a severe identity crisis. What starts out as a slam bang prison escape movie, suddenly morphs into a smarmy romance of epic proportions. Your girlfriend will swoon as Corey Michael Eubanks courts Teresa Blake throughout the interminable middle of "Payback". Such thrilling seduction rituals as midnight swims, horseback riding, and romantic dinners spew forth in what is supposed to be a tale of sweet revenge. With Michael Ironside and Don Swayze on board you might be tempted to give this one a try, however you most definitely will have to sit through at least a bunch of yawns between the prison break and the vengeful outcome. - MERK

Criminals in film looks harmless ( with one exception of Don Swayze who's acting more precision and less melodramatic than playing of his famous brother Patrick in different movies of 1980s ).Possitive characters are like milk-suckers ( but Michael Ironside's work is OK as Sheriff ).Teresa Blake for aerobics - beauty is perfect. Director Russell Solberg takes quick start (silly imitation of Sam Peckinpah's filming formula ) continue for sleepy country scenes of life and romance of main character (whith some trashy fights for variety) .Most of budget waste for couple of shuts and explosions in ending.Low-key work of stunts and plain soundtrack are applied.
