This movie is hard to find anywhere, it's almost like a 'lost' film, plus barely anyone knows about it. Shame. It's got major flaws, but it's certainly better than most things he appears in these days.
check Showtime on your cable listings...it plays all the timeThis movie is hard to find anywhere, it's almost like a 'lost' film, plus barely anyone knows about it. Shame. It's got major flaws, but it's certainly better than most things he appears in these days.
???pulled my Patriot DVD(with the picture of a shot deleted from the film)..same back cover as pictured above...say widescreen 1:85:1That Patriot DVD isn't even the proper widescreen ratio, wasn't it shot in 2.35?
Walmart.com only ships to the USA. Walmart.ca does not stock Attrition because it was never released in Canada. On eBay it is very expensive to buy it outside of the US. Someone would be very smart to buy it in the US and resell. Cheapest I could find was $40+ dollars (with shipping) after a $5.00 promo coupon for the blu ray version from eBayThe Walmart site has 4 listed for $5 each...DVD version at one outlet

Wouldn't it just be cheaper and easier to download it?Walmart.com only ships to the USA. Walmart.ca does not stock Attrition because it was never released in Canada.

I really like Attrition, it’s a BIG step up and I wish he’d make more like it.
Good fights, good story, nicely shot and some good ideas.
Loved the reverse-time shots of the guy being killed, the fight in the herb shot which was very Above the Law, the butterfly scene, the girl being chased when the locals cover the bad guys in coloured spices, it had some good schtick.
It’s only real let-down was the stupid CGI blood which seems to infest every action movies now. Can they seriously not afford prop blood? If a guy’s spitting out blood, surely it takes less time and money to simply give him a red dye capsule. And it looks better. CGI blood looks CRAP.
Other than that, great movie. Just a shame its release was so nothingy. I had to hunt the DVD down and I was actually looking for it. Meanwhile, the snooze-inducing Beyond the Law is quite easy to find.
I share your disdain for CGI blood. Squibs can't be more expensive than CGI effects.I really like Attrition, it’s a BIG step up and I wish he’d make more like it.

Sounds pretty on the mark which is a shame. His Wake of Death was the last Van Damme film I enjoyed.Yes, it's very sad that finally we get a good Seagal movie and it did not get a decent release. I tried to ask Phillippe Martinez about it. We had great contact during the producion and promotion of Attrition. I even spoke with him on the phone twice. Now he isn't replying anymore.
Our website was good for promoting the movie and now he doesn't need us anymore. That's how it feels to me.
