A number of the actors in this, actually have had good moments in their careers. None of them deserve to be in this jumbled mess. Forsythe in particular seems to be cashing a paycheck in this one, rather than trying to act. Part of the problem is the script is a mess. The story just isn't coherent, the bad guys' plans don't make sense, and nothing even tries to pass a reality check. Maybe the bad guy's lines are supposed to sound like rehashed rhetoric that compound dwelling morons parrot, but the hero's lines aren't any better.
The action is handled with very poor CGI, where the bullets look more like white blaster bolts than anything. The blood squib effect in particular is laughable.
Anyway, this seems to be one of the new slew of so-called action movies, that are done on a cheap budget, with almost no effort on anyone's part. Let's just short the draft of the script. We filmed the actors during the walk-through, and they did good enough. Oh, we'll add some bullet flashes in post, just pretend you got shot in the head. Back in the 80's and 90's this would barely qualify for direct-to-video. IF that's your thing then you're going to watch this no matter what the review says... If not, then avoid this movie.
