Are you here for Scott Adkins? Prepare to be disappointed. This isn't his usual bad, B movie with a payoff in the shape of some glorious ass whupping. There are zero kicks or punches thrown by Scott in this movie - those with a keen eye for detail should know something is off as soon as he shows up wearing well-fitted jeans (which do, ahem, fit him very well). Also, Scott is not the main character, so don't expect too much screen time with him.
The obnoxious, pretentious, cliche, 18 year old douchebag dialogue is terrible. The Reese Witherspoon lookalike with a hairdo that seems to be held together by an entire can of hairspray is annoying and just plain awful. (Her IMDB bio boasts of the famous acting coaches she's worked with ((I stopped reading after the first few rows)) - I hope she kept the receipts cause she should go get her money back.) And the camcorder guy? Don't even get me started on him.
As for all the firefights.. Pretty unrealistic scenarios made worse by details like the sound of shooting still going even after the person visibly stopped shooting.
Other than a few minutes of SA in tight jeans and the soothing voice of the AllState guy (also a side character), this movie is pretty awful. (It's really a 2/10, I gave an extra star for the former.) If you're a completionist, give it a watch. If you're looking for a good B movie, this isn't it - go watch something like Avengement instead. <3
