Having been a fan of Greg Lamberson's previous horror efforts, and knowing his love for the action genre, I was really excited to see what he could do.
And, man, was I delighted. This script is tight, punchy and strong. It weaves some of the action tropes we've seen before into a fresh plot with a multitude of antagonists (a group of several small armies) and some well-done fight scenes. There's even a ridiculously good-looking helicopter that would have you guessing about its legitimacy if you didn't already know what they did going in.
The highlight of the film is its star. Alexandra Faye Sadeghian plays the role with pathos and weight without sacrificing fun. She is absolutely an action star.
Highly recommended.
