Wow! Left For Dead is a bit of an oddity. A film that for the most part I should hate. It's story is simple, it's budget small but damn it it sure packs a punch. I've not seen a film some packed to the brim with action since the 80's and plot less but fun affairs like Commando. Yes I am comparing this with Commando. Why? They both have no plot, they both feature straight faced stoic lead heros and they both have a death count higher than George Bush on a Invasion Rampage. The budget does show in places and whilst others may consider that to be a bad point I don't. After all it means you get some pretty creative fight scenes that makes the most out of what they had. But money is and never should be an excuse. For all it's faults this is an adrenaline rush of a movie that grabs you by the nuts and doesn't let go. Not everyone's taste by far but fans of hong kong chop socky movies and butt kicking 80's action will love it.
