Review: This is another one of those cheap, "straight to DVD" movies from Vinnie Jones, which will be quickly forgotten. He plays a happily married, family man who witnesses a murder, which is committed by a bunch of gangsters, in the middle of nowhere. The gangsters then set out to make sure there wasn't any witnesses to the crime, and they brutally murder Ray Brookes (Vinnie Jones), family, right in front of him. The leader of the gang, Kane Keegan (Sean Cronin), thinks that he has killed Ray but he manages to survive, and he sets out to get revenge. That is the basic gist of the storyline! Vinnie Jones is playing his usual "tough nut" type of role, with a cockney accent, and the rest of the cast, put in pretty poor performances. I can totally understand why Vinnie Jones went on a killing spree but what shocked me was that the gangsters that he was killing, didn't seem to care that he survived and had a gun pointed to there heads. Anyway, I personally didn't think that it was that great and it just goes down as another badly made movie, by Vinnie Jones. Maybe he should go back to playing football! Disappointing!
Round-Up: It's obvious that Vinnie Jones, 51, only stars in these terrible movies to pay bills, because he honestly can't think that these low budget movies are going to do his career any good. His first taste of stardom in big movies like X-Men: The Last Stand, Swordfish, Snatch, Lock Stock, Gone in 60 Seconds etc, really does seem long ago now, and his acting skills haven't really progressed since he became an household name, after his great performance in Lock Stock in 1998. Anyway, it might do him some good if he changes his agent because these movies are going from bad to worse. This is the first major release from Adam Stephen Kelly, who also wrote this movie, which doesn't say a lot about his script writing skills. For his first major project, it's passable but the sketchy script really wasn't that great.
I recommend this movie to people who are into their crime/thrillers starring Vinnie Jones, Nicole Faraday, Sebastian Street, Sean Cronin and Dan Richardson. 2/10
