REVIEW: The storyline of this movie is neither clever nor is it very inventive. It does however, like many similar films, allow for the presentation of fast paced action and some hardcore violence. It's the presentation that really makes this film work. The movie looks and feels hugely theatrical despite its lower budget. Some of the cinematography is absolutely beautiful. There is a well struck balance between fast-paced edits and lingering, well-orchestrated camera moves. We both thought it was better than the original production. We are both suckers for a good, violent action movie and give this a strong [3-1/2 Stars]
