Poor plot and worse acting
10 September 2015 | by See all my reviews

I've watched a fair few films with bad plots and bad acting but without a doubt, this one deserves its rightful place at the top of the list. Michael Jai White is normally a very good actor but I suppose that he can only work with what he is given and in the case of this particular film, he was given a big pile of ****.

As for Steve Austin. I honestly think that when he was acting in the wrestling ring he gave a better performance than in this film and I think that the best choice of roles for him in future films would involve his being a tough guy villain who couldn't speak.

In the end it probably all came down to good old fashioned $$$'s and the actors were made offers that they couldn't refuse even if they knew that the end product would be an extremely poor, instantly forgettable film.
