5/10
not up to my expectations
3 January 2004
I decided to rent this film seeing as a friend recommended it to me and i have to say i was very disappointed. The film did not have much tension,thrills or suspense and it is supposed to be an action thriller after all! There's little plot or character depth,i just didn't feel sorry or care about any of the characters and if they were to have their brains blasted out i would not have been that shocked.I also thought that the acting was wooden as none of the characters seem very scared at what was happening to them. There are some plus points in the film such as there's one killing scene which i thought was brutal and darwin joston gave the film some black humor with his 'got a smoke?' catchphrase but the rest of the cast(especially lauren zimmer)could and should have done better. Overall there are gome good points and it is a low budget thriller so i didn't expect amazing action scenes but ultimately this just seemed run of the mill fare.

Verdict: 5/10
