genrefanatic WOW! After coming across the unique retro artwork for this film by Tom Hodge, I immediately put this one in my queue. SO Happy to say I did! This is one messed the heck up action film, and I say that in the best possible way! The story takes place in a place called Harbor City. Much like Frank Rodriguez did on a much larger budget, these indie film makers were able to create a whole new fictional world, and the results are terrific. The story is about a vigilante cop (Ronan Pierce) that would do anything and everything to find his kidnapped wife, and the result is a bombardment of some truly creatively grotesque payback and retribution. Given the way each of the villains are built up, the results are twisted and sometimes funny as hell. The cinematography is first rate, the acting is fitting for what the filmmakers are trying to accomplish (there are a couple huge standouts in the characters Lazarus and Lodder), and I REALLY enjoyed was the soundtrack. Almost always present (which you may or may not like), it is dark dingy rock n roll with a Nine Inch Nails /Chemical Brothers type vibe, perfect for the on-screen visuals. I can't say there is any direct comparison to this film, but if you enjoy your comic heroes dark and a little deranged,this one's for you - the anti-Marvel!

siderite I am happy to report that this is one of those marvelous movies that is so bad that it becomes hilarious after a while. If you are not into getting wasted and laughing your ass off at stupidly over the top acted, badly directed, ridiculously ripped off films, avoid it at all costs. Other than that... this is only the beginning.Try to think of Kung Fury mixed with Batman, Sin City and all bad cop revenge movies ever made, but so freakishly awful that you can't help bursting out in laughter at random. I kid you not: the term drinking responsibly has been created for this kind of movie, since not drinking when watching it would be insane!Enjoy!

shide_85 Slight spoiler warning, nothing that will ruin the plot line. EDIT: Knocked it down from a weak 7 to a strong 6.Let me begin with explaining why I give it a 7; it is simply what this somewhat clumsy attempt borders onto (and somewhat creates with the cinematography), an easier and more clear cut path to resurrecting b-actions in the 21st century (this is not a serious attempt at a serious action movie, that much is obvious).Short version: A mimicing of Kung Fury (2015), watch it for the fun of it - not as a serious action flick. •WARNING• This movie contains borderline snuff-film gore and grit, the moral of actions and violence might be upsetting to some.Long version: In the wake of modern cinematography, better sound and more intricate plots, movies are often produced with a sub-plot or hidden meaning, here I viewed something that follows up on movies such as Crank, Stretch and other similar movies that pay homage to the 80's and 90's action movies. This movie however, heavily lends features from Kung Fury (2015), Drive (2011), with a base in the reiteration of the Batman Saga and less known movies concerning the cinematography. Not to forget the small tidbits lent from Dexter (2006).The strong-point is clearly the cinematography - much like Tim Burton in Sleepy Hollow (1999) a complete new world is created, that is not reality but not fully fiction, in a skilled manner.The weak-point is the breaking-point between using a sound heavily inspired by Batman (2005-2012) and the style of the movie. The loudness of the lines increases the impression of the homage/retro-style used but also at times causes a tear between a fluent movie experience and the overall impression. The upside is that this is the route for 21st century b-action movie (to me), moreso than the Sin-City style (2005) even though they border into each other this has more realistic grit but lacks the classic (or attempt to be such) one-liners in the same extent.Pro's • Cineamtography (really good bang for buck) • Sound (whoever came up with mimicing Christians Bale's Batman voice added a layer that makes it clear that this is a retro/homage movie, if there was any doubt before that) • Gore and grit (even if it's partly badly made and contextually irrationally so, it both makes it clear it's fake while containing a reasonably amount to underline the psychopathic tendencies of the perpetrators)Con's • Overall script (characters does not act rationally, which either is due to paying homage to earlier movies or a bad script) • Fitting the pieces together.*It is gory, it seems to somewhat describe the new slavetrade and some of the hidden aristocratic psychopathic tendencies.

Jack Hunter Its plain awful. Script is just terrible.Acting is maybe OK for a first year student film, which this does not appear to be.Story is extremely predictable nonsense. Which I do not really mind in a B film, but its just so badly done here that it's like pouring on salt onto a burned meal.Characters are not believable.Film is also very insulting to all women out there. Main character is supposed to be on a rampage vs woman beaters of some kind, but it comes off as a guy who could not get laid even with a prostitute having a fantasy about being a misogynistic chauvinistic friendless (he actually has one 'friend' he yells at, which would never work) sociopath. Yeah, we suspend disbelief quite a bit to enjoy movies sometimes, but this one requires being probably high on drugs to enjoy.
