This is an example of using good actors to salvage a story plot that has been done a million times. Strong, tough, but nice guy (Danny Fendley) is done wrong by the mean, evil, owns the town rich guy (Joe Estevez) but the good guy wins in the end. Danny Fendley and Joe Estevez are two very good actors that do a good job with what they have to work with. The two men have a strong 'on screen' chemistry and both seem to bring the best out of each others character. Obviously the supporting cast were not as experienced but all did a reasonably good job. Danny and Joe are very convincing as as Frank and Xavier. Good guy vrs. Bad guy. There is a place for these movies in the entertainment world. The film was entertaining and the performances were strong. You won't get quite the special effects package that you will in a Bigger Hollywood action film but the effects are still impressive.
