Jusqu'à la mort

Short and sweet: If you're looking for an action packed Adkins flick. This ain't it. Fast forward 3/4 of the movie to see Scott fight. Choreography was good enough. Skip the rest.

Just saw this movie for the name of Scott Adkins, but he has very small role and only at climax. Story line is good but with some unbelievable situation that how can fight a war which risks innocent loacl people by two heads ( one of military and one from prison) over only one stupid soldier who did unfair things. However, movie starts from very interestengly and creates hope for good movie with thrill and tension. But middle part looses grip and finally a well climax and unexpected end. Acting from prison head is good with his impressive personality. Scott is super in his fight sequence as ever with his spinning kicks. Watchable at once for some thrill and tension.

This film started out nicely, with a bit weak plot but believable, but by the second half the movie become too ambitious, over-the-top and unrealistic. Why not just released them? why risk many lives over such trivial matter? the storyline is just so contrived. The score was very predictable and overbearing, a sad scene comes on, a sad string score start playing, an intense scene comes on, an intense stomp and clap score starts playing, very predictable and uncreative, not subtle at all. The film gets overly dramatic at times like the scene where some of the characters started calling God's name, so cheesy, in fact, some of this emotional scenes that's supposed to make you cry or something, will make you laugh instead and the women here, were merely items.

There was a cameo by Scott Adkins, or extended cameo at best, 'cause his total screentime was about ten minutes I think, but he was used heavily in promoting the film, nice move guys nice move, anyway, his character was totally pointless, he was kinda like a killing machine, but the fight scene at the climax was choreographed well.

Well, this movie is hard to see. It has a nice story, and a well balanced pace... but... First of all, forget Adkins... here, he is only a secondary character, a decoy. The actors aren't great, but I've seen a lot worst in Hollywood, so... The audio, oh man... The accents are awful... For me that's the major let down on this movie, the awful accents... Why didn't they keep this in their native language?

Still, the first time I saw it, I was disappointed... I saw because of Adkins and the awesome trailer, but he only shows hopoe for a couple of minutes... The second time, I forced myself to rewatch it, with low expectations, and I was entertained.

That's it... not good, but way better than the first Hulk movie (2003), and many others after that...

It is better to have a series and not a film and unfortunately Actors are not competent and output is weak .
