I just saw it recently and thought it was pretty good, thought it was about as good as Law Abiding Citizen which I also recenly saw.

It’s a great action movie. Lots of action and violence. Cool story for those of us that are not jaded and grew up on Van Damme/Stallone/Arnold movies. Kelly Hu, however, could benefit from a few more acting classes…she just does not keep up with the rest of the cast.

I am freaking glad they put Sebatstican Foucan (sp?) and Scot Adkins in the movie. Some of the most talented and athletic stuntmen working today…and pretty decent actors as well.

Ever since Ravenous and Trainspotting, I will never question Carlyle on acting ever again…the man is just a joy to watch.

i give this a 3/5 overused concept (condemned, underground etc)
music near the end is awkward to the moment but the action and special effects are freakin awesome

@Kevin2 – Sorry buddy, as much as we appreciate your comment, and I’m glad you like it, we don’t like to condone the “sharing” of movies online unless it’s a link to where it is a Pay-per-view or a legally viewable movie site like Veoh or Hulu.

Movies like this have a hard time making money because they go straight to dvd and by watching them without paying we don’t help the film makers recoup their costs and continue making films we enjoy. I edit the link out of your comment.

Thanks again for commenting though. I;m very happy to hear that the movie lives up to expectations though.

i just finished watching this movie and i have to say its a good one. Ving Rhames and Robert Carlyle’s acting are great. Ian Somerhalder’s character is sick but funny and the best scene in the movie involves him and a bunch of assassins in a strip club;blood bath. Unlike most of the movies in this genre, the ending is satisfying and somewhat unexpected. When you see it you understand the somewhat part.
