Last to review, hopefully. Please avoid. Stay away from it. Run, if you are able. Or get on your motorcycle and ride away. I thought at first that it would be a remake of the Walker Texas Ranger spinoff, but nope. Clearly trying to rip Sons of Anarchy and the Mayans off, with predictable results.
Who knew there was a b-TV series market?

Unfortunately, this film earns is. I suppose writers like Paul Lalonde understand that they don't need to do much better than the barest of minimums in constructing a plot, and they got a career stuntman as their director, which immediately shows that there were problems in pre-production.
But again, there does not appear to be any effort put into this film or the sequels. No effort was required. The subject matter was intended to immediately alienate neutral viewers while pandering to the overtly religious crowd, who appear to never demand quality in the films that pander to them. Not in writing, not in acting, directing, stunts, special effects, anything.
Pathetic, tired performances all around.

Even by the Pure Flix standard (a low bar), David A. R. Whites ventures into action films are a step below c-films. I guess he doesn't have to worry about quality when he knows that he has a rapt audience.
The Book of Eli should be the standard for these kinds of films, but they push hard into the preaching, the telling instead of showing. The lack of talent in writing, acting, choreography and stunts means that you need to have an ulterior motive to watch this film all the way through.
