    lame screenplay, bad directing and acting...

    but i have to give the credit to the stunt and action scenes, including the fantastic defensive driving scenes that actually were nicely done. but the whole movie simply proceeded in an ridiculous way that i have to blame to the poor logic thinking of the director. how could it possible a hand gun kept firing over 30 or 40 times and didn't have to reload? how could it possible a so-called CIA female agent wore two big round earrings during a dangerous mission? besides, she acted so poorly to look like a convincing agent. snipes acted well and his fighting techs still looked so smooth and flawless. but this screenplay simply was just stupid, ridiculous and highly impossible even good fighting scenes would not salvage this poor crafted movie.

    There's much worse direct-to-video movies, but this still isn't very good

    (46%) A fairly reasonable direct to DVD outing for Snipes, that is better than most of what Seagal can usually churn out without necessarily being up to cinema standards. There's a touch more effort put into the writing, even if it is pretty ropey at times, and the slightly slower pacing allows itself to build at least some sense of character absent from almost all movies of this type; there's also a coherently told plot adding another string to its bow. What does let this down more than a little though is the distracting direction that feels like the director made his way through every annoying effect preinstalled in his camera. With added help from famous faces of Robert Davi, Ernie Hudson, Zoe Bell, and fair share of decent action, making this is a decent watch, if not entirely anything that needs to be seen.

    Not as bad as expected!

    I don't understand why people vote this movie so down, because its not as bad as a lot of other Snipes movies of the past and there were certainly a lot. Who likes a halfway decent story is right here, who wants to watch 08/15 action movies, is also right here, just the ones who do not like Snipes because of his tax-problems should not watch this movie and certainly not vote it down, maybe even without seeing it.

    The most annoying thing of the movie is the lead female part, sometimes really badly annoying because so predictable and as well the pseudo- hard rock music. Nevertheless to me personally its the best movie Snipes did in the past 5-6years! And so a good 6 on the "richter scale"... ;)

    Paychecks are a powerful motivator

    This flick is am embarrassment. Guns with unlimited ammunition, wasting rounds shooting at nothing, killing everyone who is no longer useful. AUUUUUUGHHHH. Zoe Bell is always fun to watch,, too bad she didn't make it, but she was one of the bad guys,,, in fact,,, all the bad buys are CIA. The nut ward was unnecessary, but, it set the tone for the rest of the movie. Cutesey camera tricks like superimposing the same shot over itself got a little tiresome after a while. Snapping the bad guys necks seemed to be the agreed upon method of dispatching them. Oh Well,,, they can't all be Oscar Winners.

    Come On Snipes

    Even in this horrible movie you show that you got talent. Why do you lower yourself to work with people that seems to know nothing about making exciting movies? The editing is horrible and there is not real feeling in the action scenes either. guns that sound "pjuff pjuff" along with horrible editing is not a good way to go.

    This one had an exciting idea of making an exciting movie but its all just washed away during the course of the movie.

    The end fight is worth looking at though so for all that hasn't seen it fast forward to that one for some good old Wesley Snipes action! Otherwise its not much to look at here.

    But again, this is not due to Snipes 'cause he seems to be doing the best he can making it exciting but with bad editing and directing overall - noting can save this movies face.

    • Trivia
      Abel Ferrara exited the project after a few weeks of shooting.
    • Goofs
      In the vault scene, Redvale says "There you go. A hundred million in hundred-dollar bills", yet the scene shows only two suitcases full of money, when in fact it would be 1 million bills to equal that amount of money in hundreds and would take up much more room - probably filling the vault.
