Man, I remember when having Snipes on screen would give you chills ... in this move everything is so forced ... it makes you vomit :( Snipes, what happened to you man, you used to be not only high kicks but a good screen plan (to some extent). This movie is just forced :/ People that are not fans on Blade will say that blade was A LOT better ... and that says a lot that cheesy vampire flick is better than this.So, if you like a movie that carters to conspiracy theorists that claim that system is corrupt, you like corny c*** where main characters are cardboard cut outs of stereotypes, a movie where even action scenes where you should run for you life looks like somebody is speed walking - watch it.And yes I din't understand people that give more that 1 star to movie that has no value ... to have some value you need to go beyond large CG muzzle on pistol (specially one with suppressor, for f*** sake)

Terribly dull movie that I'm sure no one involved is proud of being a part of creating.Appearantly Abel Ferrera was signed on to direct but jumped off after one week of shooting.Can't say I blame him, if I had to make a movie with Wesley Snipes when he's in one of his infamous moods where he really doesn't want to act (as it appears he is in this movie) then who would really want to go on? One facial expression the man holds throughout the whole movie, a facial expression of sheer boredom. And that doesn't really excite the viewer either instead we're lead to feel the same way: bored.A very simple story as well, goes from point a to b with not a single surprise in sight, it manages to pack in what most movies would take 45 minutes into double the time 90 minutes. Or maybe the right term is pack out? Anyways Yeah it's a terribly uninspired b-action movie, even Zoe Bell whom I usually like kinda suck in this one. I think it's the third straight to DVD movie where Wesley Snipes passes out for a while, I'm guessing he likes to do those scenes cause that leaves a lot of acting responsibilities on the rest of the cast and gives him time to go play Playstation in his set-trailer or whatever he does there. Now that I think about it, it's my very least favorite Wesley Snipes movie and a complete waste of time for everyone involved and everyone watching.Yeah give this one a pass, if you do want to try a Wesley Snipes direct to DVD movie go for HARD LUCK, that's actually enjoyable, or go back to the classics like PASSENGER 57 or BLADE.

I guess you guys didn't notice that it was stated that the hospital wing was mostly empty because they had moved the patients and staff to a newly built wing? Anyway, I liked this movie. Even though the plot was simple, they kept it moving (no pauses to reload guns ;-) and it was suspenseful because you couldn't be sure what might happen next. Excellently choreographed and performed hand-to-hand and foot-to-foot combat. Wesley has the moves, wow. His deadpan suited this movie, too, I feel. Just enough humanity was included by way of innocent bystanders, but not too much so as to distract from the urgent intent of the protagonists. The unusual photographic effects here and there added to the edginess, in my opinion. Pure adrenaline rush, if you stay with the flow.

I've added this review for those who've watched it. What the hell was the hospital scene? There are some guys killing and killing somebody and nobody gives a sh*t as if there wasn't only one security camera. Only one? Was not?Everyone kills each other, OK, I brush it off, but the girl (Zoe Bell) is knocked out by a head and locked by the man in a bank vault. Then stands up and throw a knife or star -or something to the man. And, i gotta say, while all of these things happen, we can't see how the knife -or star- penetrates the close and tight bars. Over-fantastic...Agent Marcus and Zander are boxing on the roof in a senseless way. The agent is smashing Zender's arms, legs... Then hit his throat and broke his neck. OK. Good. But after that, he loses. Yes, I said "he loses". He was on the roof of a towering bank, and he disappeared.I must add that: In this movie, there isn't any reloading. The weapons are limitless. ABSOLUTELY!I don't wanna make this boring. I cut off in here. They will approve me those who know this movie, but those who haven't done yet:Don't waste your time.Ps: Zoe Bell is a bad actress. I can't stand her.
