Review Time: this title is poor.

Fundamental elements: there are cultural elements, no subtitles when another language is being used, mental imagery, slow-motion effects, background music which is very noticeable, time jumps and place jumps [just a heads up there is an element of aggressive/unwilling sexual activity as well.] I have to say the movement of this title is slow and consequently somewhat difficult to keep interested in, but in fairness and balance it does get quicker at some point, it just depends if your interest is not completely gone by this stage.

Action sequences: these sequences give this title value; there are punchers being thrown and those kinds of things with chasing and weapons being used.

Performances: they mostly range from poor to mixed or somewhere between these two words, but however Sutherland's performance is the main reason why this title gets a high ranking poor mark, this character/performer in front of people seems to be able to come across most of the time as happy to be here and things of this nature, but within him as a person there is something itching to come out.

This film receives: 3/10, now if this film focused less on this love angle which is so boring and more of giving Sutherland's character more of everything, I would like to be a little bit more specific, but if I say everything I cannot go wrong [but if you wanted in a clean nutshell basically put this love angle way, way, way in the back and bring Sutherland's character to the front of this film,] it would have made this film much better.
