Such a frustrating disappointment

Am i the only one who thinks........Average?

After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

As a fan of 90's B-Action, this movie is an absolute gem that sadly flew under the radar of most people.Mark Dacascos is in top form here, and the addition of the always funny Kadeem Hardison makes their duet shine. These two could easily carry a buddy-cop show on their own! The late Brittany Murphy shows up in an amazing performance as well; one that'll keep you grinning ever after it's over.Add in the epic Tracey Walter, and the always awesome Johnny Pypes!, and you have a duet opposite of Mark and Kadeem that hold their own just as well. These two groups clashing multiple times over the course of the movie not only leads to your money's worth of awesome action; it carries a side helping of comedy to keep it fresh.If there's one true breakout star of this film, however, it can only be Walter the Einstein Frog! If you're considering giving Drive a watch, then do it. You'll be missing out if you let this one pass by your list. And if you don't like the film, I'll personally throw in the epic treasure of an autographed photo of yours truly, giving a thumbs up!

Toby Wong (Mark Dacascos) stowaways from Hong Kong on a freighter to America. He is escaping from the Chinese government who installed a prototype "biological energy module" in his chest. They are trying to recapture him without killing him or shooting him in the chest. Orders are given to Chinese operatives and local hired thug Vic Madison to shoot him only in the legs. Toby brings the fight to a local bar where Malik Brody (Kadeem Hardison) is hanging out. Toby takes Malik hostage. They get arrested by fake cops and handcuffed. They manage to escape. Toby is trying to get to L.A. to sell the module for $5 million and offers half to Malik. At a road side motel, they meet hyper-active clerk Deliverance Bodine (Brittany Murphy).This is a straight to video movie with a certain B-movie charm. There is plenty of fight action and gun action. Dacascos' charisma is limited but better than many. Hardison is a lesser black sidekick. Brittany Murphy comes in much later around 45 minutes and really camps it up for about 30 minutes. It's a mindless popcorn action movie that has some weird camp fun value. Although Murphy needs to stay in more of the movie to maintain its campiness. Dacascos' singing is the bad kind of camp.

If you are looking for a film that is a proper action film with non-stop action, stunts and fights scenes then you have come to the right place. The action is quality, especially the ending and the stunts are brilliant and they look so dangerous and crazy. But the fights scenes...WOAH. They are amazing. The choreography is brilliant. The moves Mark Dacascos are breath taking. You might think he used wires to do some of it but no he didn't. He did all his fight sequences on his own. Kadeem Hardison and Mark Dacascos are good partnership and they add Britney Murphy in to give it some more comedy in which she does. This film will blow you away with it's amazing fights scenes. It is a must see for action fans with great action.

I thought that this movie was excellent, I watched it after a recommendation from a friend.After a slow first ten minutes when we get introduced to the main characters Toby Wong (an excellent Mark Dacascos)and Malik Brody (equally as good Kadeem Hardison) the action gets under way and doesn't stop until the closing credits.The jokes come quick and fast throughout and the film only gets better with the introduction of the fantastic but pretty unstable motel worker Deliverance Bodine (Brittany Murphy).Overall I give it 8/10
