Usually, I'm a big fan of Wesley Snipes, he makes pretty decent action flicks, but this movie wasn't up to the Snipes standard. Granted, I didn't expect much from the movie, but the acting in it (aside from Snipes) was sort of lame, especially the odd personalities of all the different characters. The only other decent performance came from Tamzin, playing the NATO officer or whatever who befriends Snipes after her kidnapping and while tracking him down, wants to help him prove his pseudo-innocence and recover his girlfriend who was kidnapped. After watching the first 20 or so minutes of the movie, I thought it was going to be a direct rip-off of the Italian Job, but decided to keep watching, hoping things would get better. After a while, the plot picked up, and I was laughing at some of the corny jokes that were prominently on display. While there were a few action scenes, it was obvious the low budget of the film, and the gunshots and car crashes, etc were all quite fake.
Overall, I'd say there are much better movies to watch on TV, but if you're in the mood for a odd action flick, maybe take a look at this one.
