    Charlotte was cool, but the movie's plot is poor

    Charlotte's deadly beauty and lethal kicks make the movie cooler than it'd be otherwise.The story is so poor and Charlotte's character dies in such a foolish way, that you wonder if this's the ending they had thought of for this movie. I wish somebody could tell that an alternative ending exists, but I fear it doesn't. As for the rest of the cst, well I'd say they simply didn't act very well; although the blame should be put on the poor script.This movie reminds me of Rush Hour 2 where Zhang Ziyi dies in absurd way, since she had been the only one who had stolen the show during the whole movie. I could give this movie 2/5
    presto-6

    Read a book instead.

    It's sad to see what some actors have to take after their careers are pass their zenith (as it were). This film is just plain bad. I haven't seem so many people shooting at each other at point blank range yet no one getting hit since the A-Team went off the air. At times you'd swear that they were going for camp, but then you come to the ugly realization that they were taking themselves quite seriously. And I like both Peter Weller and Robert "T1000" Patrick.

    Action and nothing else

    A lot of action and nothing else. What I really like about this movie is Charlotte Lewis as cool and sexy killer Lady. She looks a little bit like Lara Croft. Maybe she could have been the better Lara. This movie is not so bad. If you like action it is OK but I really hate how Charlotte ends up in this movie.

    Worthless

    A pointless movie with nothing but gratuitous violence. The only fun I had was playing "spot the location", as much of it was filmed in my home town of Regina, Saskatchewan. I like to support locally produced films but this one was a major disappointment.

    Forgettable

    You ever sit through a movie and after it's over it's like "why did I even bother!?" Welcome to Decoy.

    Another straight to video action flick you can immediately forget about having watched or better yet don't watch it at all. Peter Weller, Robert Patrick star and are quickly wasted in this going nowhere fast mercs-for-hire double cross action dud. The story is pretty darn bad, the action is neither filmed well or exciting and what's the point of watching an action flick if the action isn't good?

    Robert Patrick in particular hits a new low in an action sequence that has him firing a machine gun while standing on the hood of a moving school bus. Co-stars the ambient Charlotte Lewis and Canada's own Scott Hylands (of TV's Night Heat fame).
