Review Time

Warning: there are flashing effects/colourful effects/shooting/stabbing/animal cruelty/breaking/drugs/decapitation/be heading/cutting/burning

Storyline/Character [Character developments]/Art/Action/Comedy/Performances: all these components combined in one way or another; this film is set down in the model between Hard Target 1993 starring Jean-Claude Van Damme and The Condemned 2007 starring Steve Austin and it also uses these character types minus one character/performer which I will discuss later [now if you don't know anything about these three films; you are either the Hunter or the Hunted and if you survive you get a reward,] the ending of this film leaves it on a question-mark of what happened next? Which if you have been following me long enough unless it is a weird or if it was a location-based film [meaning it began here so when everything has been resolved this film ends when we leave location the film ends which in hindsight this film is, but it brings up Malone family; but we never see any of this] or a part of a series of films I don't like, I really don't like question-mark endings, it just feels even a lazy way to finish a project or I have invested my time in watching this at minimum I want a solid ending and the pacing is likewise safe and reliable.

But however this title right here and right now is just a pile of manure, even though it uses these storylines and character types which in theory should have been something safe and reliable it turns out to be anything but as the Hunters keep turning on one another and the Hunted [Malone/Willis; if you ever wondered what if John McClane/Willis from the Die Hard  franchise would be like if he ever got thrown into prison well this film will show you a little bit of what he could be like; but I digress] is watching from a distance using beautiful landscapes and scenery to hide in or behind; this island is called Apex Island or this science fiction and scenery and so on; these Mongrels [this is an option that can be bought in the game so this is what Dr. Samuel Rainsford/McDonough; they are Bounty Hunters are brought/brought into the game by the game runner [West/Fast; this is a real person, but she appears as a hologram as well; the hologram looks highly creative] or these two Mongrels are searching for Malone/Willis, one of these Mongrels has a bazooka on him, Malone/Willis shoots this one from distance; shoots him and whilst he is dying he sets off this bazooka which not only make sure he is dead but also kills the other one as well and without giving too much away these two bullets colliding near to the end of this film these are good positives.

The performances are mostly poor, it wastes the talents of Willis, McDonough and Alexia Fast puts in a performance to hang out on the porch with Willis and McDonough.

This film receives: 2/10, this film is poor; I know I have spoken about positives which this film has, but it is one of those occasions where; you put it all together and we find ourselves here, but if you are a fan of individually or together Bruce Willis or/and Neal McDonough take a look at this film or take a look at Alexia Fast, but with this project I wouldn't expect too much.
