This film contains a lot of blank spots that you must fill in yourself with no background of any kind to work with. Scene changes leave you wondering where in the world the film is taking place. Languages change to give you a few clues but there are never any concrete facts to help you out. The hero(villain) manages to survive being bombed,beaten, tortured, being in a rollover truck wreck, getting caught in a steel trap, falling off a cliff, having a tree fall on him and an attack dog to mention just a few of his adventures. The ending was awful and made no sense at all in light of what happened in the rest of the movie. A wasted couple of hours is what you can expect with this film.
