Review Time: well this film is hard work.

Subtitles: they are big and colourful yes, but they move so quickly on and off screen that you don't really have a chance to read them and on top of that there are sometimes where one character could be talking in a different language and there are no subtitles whatsoever [I know this to be true, because I even watched these scenes again just to make sure.]

Van Damme/Batista: individually are the positives to this project, in a nutshell anything that these performers do or say partially rescues this project from a lower percentage of approval than what I am going to give it and whilst I am on the subject this does include any of the action sequences, as long as they are involved the action sequence looks respectable.

Fundamental core: wow this film moves so badly, the montages are just annoying, on one hand there is this montage that has a mixture between training and other bits and pieces, whilst on the other hand there is this other montage which is training with this loud background music [it dominates the sequence.] But there's more at the beginning-ish stages of this project the film moves backwards roughly 3 months [it tells you on screen] and then some time later it says something to the effect of in the present day [once again it tells you on screen.] I really, really don't like how this film moves, it just feels lazy at every stage from beginning to end of this title.

Elephants: there are some real life elephants being used in this project, they look really cool.

This film receives: 23% approval, now taking everything into consideration I think this percentage is just about right, because there are some good elements to this project, but then again when this film is bad it is terrible [it should be noted that if I have missed any of the montages out of this review, they board me so much when they were in effect I mentally switched off and I am aware of the dancing split screen sequence somewhere at the end of this project, it is okay, on one side of the screen is now from this film and on the other side is from Kickboxer 1989.]
