Let me be clear about this once again so there is no misunderstanding.
Adkins has potential. He can deliver. His work as Boyka in the Undisputed franchise was stellar and Undisputed 3 in particular is actually one of the best MMA films of all time.
In my various and sundry reviews for the IMDb, I pointed out that Adkin's film roles subsequent to Boyka were reflecting a downward career path.
For this observation I received the usual monkey-hammering of the NOT USEFUL key.
But this film says it all. Even the opening credits, done in the retro feel of the 1960s Italian Westerns (and you have to be of a certain age to know that!) tells you IN ADVANCE this is a B-movie, DTV production, done to generate cash flow and little else.
Adkins really deserves better.
The good news? There is another UNDISPUTED in the works, with the same production team.
We can only hope...
