..and, well... not much else.
This movie takes place in a world where the laws of physics don't exist. The action sequences just don't make any sense. The final bike jump is like something out of a Bugs Bunny cartoon: acme physics at work.
I know German cars are well built, but the beating all these Mercedes take in that movie is just hilarious ! And they still roll ! Alison King is cute, but she can't act. But, hey, what can you do with such a stupid script ? If you have 90 minutes to waste, like, really really waste, then this movie will do that for you.
But they will be wasted forever: no refund, so think about it !

Sorry folks this is a stinker, i only write a preview if it is really good, really crap, or there are other previews that are not 100 percent true, in my opinion. This movie falls in the second category, acting, directing, story,continuity in fact everything about the film is not good. It seems like someone got the idea to make a film in Germany, advertise for any American and English people in the area,throw them all together, with two writers, who have zilch credits to there names, lastly add to the mix a German (i think)director,who has only a couple of directorial credits to his name, none i hasten to say in English, and you have it, a no brainer of a film. there are a couple of posts on here, one from a starstruck teenager in love with Drew Fuller, in fact she sounds a little creepy, and a french person who, well read it and see. i am not going into the story/plot as there is not one, but when you see 20 or 30 German SAS/Police, and they all talk American/English, in Gemany, enough said.

I was just thinking of passing sometime by watching this on DVD and the surround quality on the DVD was bad too! But the very second scene itself it turns out to be interesting. Story plot is interesting, script is fine but the surprise is the action. You'll never expect such blowing scenes from a low-profile movie. Tanja(Jenny) has to improve her acting skills. Others were fine including the Hero (Fuller). Car jumping scenes building to building reminds one of Lethal Weapon movies. Watch it if you like action flicks. It will surprise you. Good car chases. So my recommendation is; WATCH IT WITHOUT ANY HOPE AND YOU WILL LOVE IT!

Good action, Plot So so. Dumb Cops. The movie is not as bad as some of posters suggest. Physics? In an action movie? Ha LOL Please. Have you seen XXX ? or a bond film? The action is good the plot is a little heavy handed ,but I think that is just to keep the pace moving along. Personally I wish they had some nudity but there you go. The Cops are as dim as can be. Man if I decide to commit a crime I am going to Germany! (If the cops are like that) I love the Beating that the Cars took in the movie. So much metal scrunched yea. I love seeing helicopters on the go. They didn't use them to the best but they were there. I would say this one is worth watching. If for the car crashes if nothing else.
I was captivated by this movie from the first scene to the last. The pace was so fast that I did not dare look away from the screen in case I miss the next turn of events. I also liked the storyline: a nice, harmless young man suddenly finds himself in the middle of a full scale war between a professional killer, who is a very clever, ruthless and beautiful lady, and the police. Of course the plot is not very realistic, which action movie is? Everything is exaggerated to make it more exciting. But compared to many other action movies, the plot is cleverly constructed and makes sense. There are even some humorous elements - like the way this young man tries to hold on to good manners in the midst of chaos, or the scene where a police commando storms the workshop of the young man's uncle who thinks this is about unpaid parking tickets. I have no explanation for the sharply negative comments on this page. It could be that the English version, which I have not seen yet, is much worse than the German version, but I doubt it. I also don't understand the complaint about German police not speaking in their native language. But this may be due to the fact that in Germany all foreign movies are dubbed and therefore I am used to it.

I love this movie because Drew Fuller is in it. Hes such a attractive guy, what girl wouldn't want to see him. Best movie ever. Drew is a wonderful actor and I believe hes my favorite of all. He's amazingly gorgeous and such a heart-throb. I wouldn't want to see anybody else in this movie but him. He's super amazing and i love it. I enjoyed seeing him in Charmed and now getting to see him be a start in this movie is just seriously great. Drew is such an amazing actor that words just cant describe him. Not only is he attractive, but he puts emotion into his work. I absolutely loved this movie because Drew is the star and he is a super outgoing character and should be in many many more amazing movies just like this one. Drew is the best actor ever.
