“I had no expectations of this film, but I was thoroughly entertained. We showed it to friends the very next day to see what they thought.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe filmu0026#39;s premise is quite outrageous and it is executed in a stylishly outrageous way. There are several Wow! or u0026#39;Nice Shotu0026#39; moments. In fact this film is very close to Grand Theft Auto.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe script is genuinely funny, reminiscent of another Tia Carrere classic, Hollow Point.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eFor some reason the idea of a Baldwin film is an amusing thing. The South Park movie says, u0026quot;What sucks about being a Baldwin? Nothing!u0026quot; I am impressed with Stephen Baldwinu0026#39;s restrained, laconic, dry and heroic performance. We wondered if he were blind, considering the number of disconcerting smiles he issues with his eyes closed.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eChazz Palminteri is the Man. Heu0026#39;s given the stupidest role and as usual he makes it seem almost convincing, while he enjoys himself a great deal.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eTia Carrere sings, moves around a lot, looks good, has her moments and kills people. What more can you ask for?u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis film scores over many u0026#39;betteru0026#39; films by working hard to introduce the opposition. You are half way through the film. You know Stephen Baldwin is up against it, and all the bad guys are still there.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe film is filled with memorable characters. I very much enjoyed the u0026#39;fight in the baru0026#39; scene because thereu0026#39;s no fight. They should use the bouncer in a new series of the Munsters.”
