This movie actually starts off pretty well and, despite the obvious simplicity of the plot, does draw you in. The cast are pretty good (when not being directed to be deliberately terrible in homage to cheap 70s/80s straight-to-video movies) but the story and film-making slowly get worse and worse. The action scenes lack proper continuity ("Ooooh but they're supposed to be that way", I hear some cry) which removes any suspended disbelief and the whole tone of the movie (soundtrack included) seems to step back in time for the final act. I wanted to like it and it has some good moments but in the end we were just asking ourselves "How in the name of all that is good did this movie score so highly?". It's middling at best!
