    Solid Film

    Always been a fan of MJW. I had multiple opportunities to hang out with him and his wonderful wife. They are great people and I would support them on any project that they do in the future. I have worked with many actors in my extensive career and he stands out as one of the nicest, most modest, and humble people to date.

    I look forward to seeing a sequel to this film if/when it's in the works. Hopefully I can participate in the production of the project and get to see the movie magic first hand.

    The movie plays very well with lots of action, as MJW does best. Overall a very solid film. Hope you enjoy it as I have.

    Lots of action

    Lots of good action to see.

    Cool scenes and good acting from the cast

    I liked the scenes and the intensity of the characters. I won't say any spoilers, but I was caught off guard a few times and even jumped a bit. The leads were really good. I liked the pace of the movie too because I get bored easily sometimes when watching a movie and then I fast forward a bit for other movies.....but this movie has action! There's one scene that will have you saying WOW out loud, but of course I won't give that away. I think the direction and editing were also good in this feature length film that worth watching .

    Low budget nonsense

    Bad acting, empty script, weak fight scenes, bad editing, cheap sfx - all accompanied by an ugly soundtrack.

    Hard to believe someone in 21st century would want to film this nonsense. If it was a movie from 1982 I would've accept it as it is, but it's created in 2022 and it fails to deliver the required percentage of joy.

    That leading actor is well known for his fighting movies from some 15-20 years ago, but now he's old and lost his energy.

    I'm watching it on cable TV and I'm glad for that, because if i was watching it on big screen I'd leave the theater somewhere after the first 15-20 minutes.

    It's one of the lamest productions of this century, for sure. The Ram-bro thingy didn't worked at all.

    Average...

    2.253 / 5.000 "Every year thousands of people leave Mexico, but there are those who go to Mexico, many do it to escape their past..." A good Mexican police action film, nothing too innovative, even a bit cliché, but it maintains a pleasant line between action and a slightly ironic humor, captivating characters, the final stretch takes a downturn, without anything new, moving towards the predictable, loses its spirit, and becomes more of the same... Average...

    Bryant befriends a troubled teenager and introduces him to martial arts. As Bryant's mysterious and dangerous past catches up with him, he is forced into a life-or-death struggle to clear his name, save the boy and recover everything he left behind.
