When this movie first came out, for weeks before its release, the Trailer of "I have a particular set of skills.... I will find you..." was being shown practically daily. It was probably one of the best marketed and advertised films of the early 21st century considering it didn't have any huge movie star names attached to it; yes Neesom is popular now, but back then he was only popular with an older audience from his 90's movies so to see him in a lead role in an action movie was odd and not a perfect match.
How anyone into action movies wasn't compelled to watch this after the bombardment of commercials would be hard to believe. I couldn't wait to see this, but I waited until it was available for rent.
Even though it is mostly cliched, the marketing and something special and different about it made it totally unique and able to stand on its own away from most action movies. Neesom just going around simply kicking butt with his skills to hunt down his daughter's kidnappers was fun and intense to watch. It's a modern classic spin on the revenge tale.
8/10.
