Hmm, just saw the preview for this. Said rated R. Guess rumour didn't've it this time.

Pure action and lots of killing with a hot chick thrown in equal a pretty entertaining film despite the terrible acting.

Apparently, there's a plot here too, but let's be honest, this is about the action. Thus, it's easy to forgive the plot for being a bit lame.

Worth a rental for action junkies, just turn off your brain.

5 out of 10.

Heard that the leading dude (Timothy Oly-something, the dude from "Go") wasn't particularly impressive.

He's not, but he's serviceable.

I'd agree with this review. For me the biggest problem wasn't so much with the overall plot, but how inconsistant they wrote the main character. Mostly with how he interacted with the female lead. He'd go from awkward to smooth to seeming disinterest.

What was funny was just as that would start to annoy you, she'd take her clothes off and you'd go, "Oh! Naked." and forget how annoying it was for a few minutes.

Wasn't as bad as I feared it would be.
