hyped garbage

Excellent but underrated film

Don't listen to the negative reviews

A lot more amusing than I thought it would be.

This is an awful movie. There's no originality (unless being incomprehensible is considered original), there's no action, and it looks like it was made on a budget of $50K.Let's start with the most fundamental problem: being confusing. I truly have no idea what this movie is about. The movie is about 50% flashbacks (and not the illuminating kind, either) that just serve to confuse. The US Secretary of Defense apparently hangs around at illegal fighting exhibitions and nobody notices. (In fact, it looks as if he is the ONLY one attending the fights.) The whole plot (if there is one) is just a mess.The other big problem is how cheap the film looks. It looks like it was shot in an old warehouse that serves as a bar, a secret fight club, a terrorist hide-out and makeshift hospital in the middle east. Weapons and weapon-handling are crappy, the fight scenes are pretty much non-existent, but when there are some fights, they are truly limp.Just bad, bad, bad. Not worth a moment of your time.

This movie is really one of the worst movie I have ever seen lately. Really I am very sad for my time that I spent for watching this crap. If you care about the comments of other people do not watch this one. This is my first comment and I am writing this to save your time people. I do not know where to start but first of all this movie is classified Action but this is not an action movie at all. I wish I could write something nice because people made a movie and sure they wanted it to be good. But this one is totally disappointment. Very bad story, bad acting, awful action scenes.Last but not least if your time is valuable do not watch it guys.

Cuba GOODING JR, is the Shaquille O'NEAL of str8 2 video movies. He's a tremendous talent who's top heavy , and over-blown performance does nothing but slows things down your production.This movie had everything (war film, fight club)I wanted and drained the life out of it. Way overwritten way overacted. A good script, a good cast, good production, but horrible film. The flash backs or slow-and plodding along. The shoot outs are irritating, a group of bounty hunters that plod around a war-house searching for this Afghan warlord. They make more noise and shout dialog, is the "Ace of Spades" deaf? And then they keep going back to it at the worst time. Every time the film gets barely interesting let's interrupt for more boring war shuffling. Hell the UFC fight was just boring and unbelievable.

I rented this film from a Redbox mainly because I like Cuba Gooding Jr. I must admit that this is the first film since Howard the Duck many years ago that I didn't finish. I left after about 45 minutes as I found it way too slow, uninvolved, poorly edited, terribly written and boring. It is one of the worst movies I've ever seen and unless it got substantially better, I wholeheartedly recommend against this movie, even if you are a fan of the lead actor. IIt wasn't just bad...it was horrible. I even have made bets that my fellow movie-loving friends wont be able to sit through it. Maybe on another day when I want to punish myself Ill rent it again...just to have a feeling of my tolerance level. Avoid!
