It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

The acting in this movie is really good.

"the Purifiers" is a movie with practically nothing to recommend it.The direction is sloppy and it never overcomes its low budget. The script is derivative of other more successful films without any understanding of the elements which made the originals successful.Performances are pretty amateurish,with Dominic Monaghan phoning in his performance.Editing is awful.All of these faults could be overlooked if the martial arts were any good but the fight scenes ( which if I recall correctly all take place in slow motion) being ineptly staged and filmed.There are better movies than this in any genre you care to name.Avoid.

If you look at the DVD you might be interested to rent or buy it... Don't make that mistake. When I was looking at the DVD on the video club, story was looking promising, Dominic Monaghan, Karate, Science-fiction,cute actress, everything that could make a movie fun to watch. But it doesn't, not even near fun to watch. -Dominic Mohaghan have the 4th role in this movie but they tried to sell that movie in Canada with him on the DVD. -Combat scenes are bad, too many slow motion -No sex, no gore, no real sci-fi except 2-3 scenes at the beginning. Basically NO REASON to rent/buy/copy this DVD. I don't even know why Dominic Monaghan accepted to be in this movie...

Wow. Just . . . Wow. It's movies like this that make me wonder how some people even began to think they could get anywhere in the business.This is one of the worst movies I have ever seen. Ever. The way this movie was directed has "omg, I think I'm a freaking genius" splotched all over it, but sadly, nobody but this lame director will agree with that.The absolute *worst* part of this film is the editing. It's atrocious. Shots that should be longer are WAY too short, and shots that should be shorter are WAY WAY WAY WAY WAY too long. I mean... I'm seriously astonished here. What were they thinking? The second worst part of this film is the fighting - if you call it fighting. It's sad. Really. It will make you depressed.Man, and to think I wasted almost an hour and a half of my precious time on this. Reader, do yourself a favor and don't even go near this... This "film", as it claims to be.

It is not as bad as I make it sound with the summary. To be honest, I rented this movie strictly because Dominic Monaghan was in it. I had read some bad reviews and was expecting a less than mediocre film. All the same, Dom had looked good in the previews and I figured that if nothing else Dom would be pretty. Dom was pretty. He also did a really good job playing the bad guy. At the end of the movie both my friend and I (we're both big Dom fans) were waiting for somebody to kill him and they did, thank you very much. He is not the main character, but I loved the main character, John. Gordon Alexander did a fantabulous job portraying John as the man who will always stick to what he knows is right and fight what is wrong. There is something of an artistic way this film is done and sometimes it works...other times it doesn't. I still like it a lot and plan on buying on it. It is not what most people would expect when they see the preview, but it is worth a watch.
