It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

Yo, there's no way for me to review this film without saying, take your *insert ethnicity + "ass" here* to see this film,like now. You have to see it in order to know what you're really messing with.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

"Striking Range" is a entertaining action-filled movie. The plot: "Vash" (Phillips) is a mercenary, who is asked to guard Ted Billings (Glenn Morshower) because he has a hi-tech WMD. "Vash" doesn't like the guy, but then he gets his money's worth because criminals from all sides are after him.What's interesting about this movie is that it takes the time to flesh out some character development. Phillips is very good in the role. Yancy Butler plays his ex-girlfriend. She gets her time to shine. Jeff Speakman plays one of the villains and gets to utilize his martial arts ability. Speakman is a big guy and he moves fast. The whole movie is one big action sequence. The beginning is little lame, but once that gets out of the way, It's B-movie fun till the end.In the end: If you like L.D.P., you'll enjoy this. Non-fans will also like the non-stop action.For more insanity, please visit: comeuppancereviews.com

"Striking Range" has been a film I have been following for quite sometime- This usually works as a disadvantage because after so long I get let down with the end result. When the first seven minutes of the film was released on youtube I became very skeptical of the film. From the shaky camera work to the dialog I was like -"WTF"? It isn't surprising many people shared my opinion.However the movie came out and I went ahead and rented it. sat through those seven minutes again and Im very glad I did because what follows is a very good film. The acting improved vastly as did the action and suspense. It was all quite interesting.There are flaws of course- but knowing the budget and work that went into this ( via Internet and Indie Slate.) they are very easy to over look. My main issue was the purpose of one central character and while it does lend to one of the morals of the film ,it does kinda throw the viewer a bit off focus.There's a lot good though- The moral of the story for one- ideals , agendas and power- what that can do to someone even if its not your own. The acting was Super. Honestly I have never really paid attention to Lou other than a brief TV series he did a while back...which was so-so. But he is very good as Vash. Another stand out is Glen Moreshower from 24-very good and Of course Yancy Butler great as always.But seriously this film was low budget and you can't even really tell especially when you compare it with fims with a trillion dollar budget (you would be surprised.) that look very shoe string. this is high quality. and while it isn't the best thing ever it is waaaayyyy better than its current ranking.

What's the point of having a movie on DVD? It has to be entertaining enough to let you want to watch it more than just two or three times. Thanks to the amazing creativity and enthusiasm of Director Daniel Millican and the whole cast and crew Striking Range definitely has all the necessary ingredients: outstanding performances of Troy Baker, Glenn Morshower and Yancy Butler, Lou Diamond Phillips and Tom Wright managing it perfectly to pull the audience on their sides, an intriguing plot with surprising twists, long, thrilling sequences, fast-paced action, hard, fast and straight fight scenes, dry jokes, great video and soundtrack, a brilliant sound design and what I call "some ideas" aka something unusual, like in this case for instance all the cool high-quality F/X goodies, which I had never seen in a low-budget independent production before.When you start watching Striking Range, it will capture you within a few minutes and won't let you go until the closing credits start rolling. Striking Range is an excellent action thriller to enjoy together with friends, thankfully the DVD finally hit the stores ... and my player.

Though this movie is a little on the bloody side for me, it held my attention. Even though it's a low budget indie movie, the FX were pretty good and believable. The story line is easy to follow and suspenseful. All of the actors do a really good job of becoming their character. I have seen co-star Tom Wright in several movies over the years (including "World Trade Center")and he is becoming a staple to the industry. The fight scenes made me groan in pain. Ouch!!This is a better movie than some of the high dollar movies being made now and the quality and editing are really pretty good. It looks like the director, Daniel Millican, is working his way up the movie business ladder and hopefully on to bigger projects. I hope he does a variety of movies in the future. I loved Vash's car!
