    Terrible story supported by terrible actors

    Low budget movie with transparent story and predictable course of action. Can't believe that Cuba Gooding Junior agreed to act in this rotten movie. Maybe he needed the money.... From the first minute, everybody knew that the best friend of the main character named Cash has no good intentions and belongs to the other side. But what turned me down most: slow action scenes, especially the fist fighting. Seemed like my two grandpas fought each other's in slow motion....

    Hilariously Bad

    Bad. Really bad. And he casting director must have been having a particularly cruel day. Everyone on screen - and I mean EVERYONE, including the children - looks like they were assembled from spare parts. It's almost impressively ugly.

    But here's the twisted beauty: this movie is so spectacularly, catastrophically awful that it transcends badness and becomes pure entertainment gold. Sometimes disaster creates accidental art.

    6 yr old kids project

    What a crap that even doesnt have the right to be called a movie. It looks like a 6 year old project of school. Actors are a bunch of scraps like this is the best we can find and none of them have any acting skills. Take that FBI director for example, dressed like a drag queen and cannot even speak proper English. She sound like a Japanese with 2 days of English training. Best is to skip this kind of garbage... or must prefer movies with super bad actors and a storyline that makes totally no sense.

    Don't even boher

    Saw Cuba Gooding Jr. And thought "yeah idk this cast but Cuba is solid so let's give it a try."

    If you make it past the opening scene and the "we kinda want to mimc the early 2000's action movie" title screens you will find failed lines of dialog and the most forced acting I have seen since my primary school rendition of Othello. There is no logic in anything that the characters do or say.

    This is not even a fun "shoot 'em up' if you want that watcn Nobody... do not watch it not even cause you saw Cuba Gooding Jr...

    Someones in film school XD

    5 minutes into this movie you ask yourself who bankrolled this and why. Halfway through and you just wonder which of the key players in the production or direction of this are on Warren buffett's Christmas card list lol. It's so bad you can't look away, like a dumpster fire. Everything was predictable and everything was executed atrociously. Still here I am 95 minutes later and I watched every minute. Gave it a three just to keep it at the current score because yeah it's terrible.
