Waste of time - total garbage
17 March 2015 | by (Serbia) – See all my reviews

Some spoilers included, if it is possible to spoil this trash.

I thought this flick might be something at least decent, but after 30 minutes, I just jumped forward to the end.

Acting is bad even for B-movies. Camera is also bad. Script is non- existent, looks like somebody tried to mix Mad Max with current Washington politics. Driving a Toyota with machine gun is out of place for many reasons, and "brave" protagonist of the movie are using East German Wartburg (or it was Trabant).

Everything is out of place, including land mines, weapons, languages etc.

The idea is so stupid it does not deserve "Sci" in sci-fi. It could be placed in "St-fi" genre for it is stupid-fiction.

It is obvious somebody needed this kind of trash to depict pro-Russian militia as criminals and murderers. That is Washington part of the mix.

Total garbage, find something else.
