Question for NCS...

NCS, Do they speak both English and Russian, in this movie and are there any movie reviews out on this movie, yet? Also, what part of Russia, does the movie supposed to betray or depict?

Thanks for the info... it does perk my interest....especially since it is about Russia! Are you even interested in it because it is "of Russia" and do you personally speak any Russian?

Love Your Sister,
Stacey :yin:

They speak both English and Russian and some Bulgarian according to a fan's review. I'm not sure which part of Russia it depicts but a lot of it was shot in Bulgaria but there are many exterior shots and Russian locations in the movie. Dolph is known for playing many Russian characters, the main reason I'm interested in seeing this movie is because of Dolph but Russia is a beautiful country and makes for a really interesting location. Unfortunately I cannot speak Russian.

Many fans have posted their early reviews of either the torrent download or the Thai edition. Most of the reviews say that it is a fun action movie with almost constant action, the fighting is good and there are tonnes of explosions and chases. A couple of people said the script and direction were pretty bad and to take it as a B-movie. I think it's best that people don't take this movie too seriously and just enjoy it for the mindless action!!
 
Thanks NCS!

Thanks NCS! It does sound interesting just for the simple fact that the film is shot in 3 different European Countries that have a very rich/facinating History, beautiful culture and beautiful people.... Even though many movies are made up fantasy, if one looks close enough with a discerning spirit, they can find out a lot about the culture and country a movie is being shot in... in addition to that, sometimes there are profound serious truths of reality and life, that can aslo be found in some of those fantasy-made-up movies!

Love Always Your Sister,

I saw the movie about 5 minutes ago. It was pretty good.

Positive:
-Good action scenes
-Coo fight scenes with Dolph
-A lot of huge explosions

Negative:
-Stock footage
-Bad Storyline

I give the movie 6.5 out of 10 big explosions.

This is the official page at First Look, the distributor for the Blu-ray/DVD right here.

Can't wait for this; I'll be buying it on Blu-ray the day it comes out :)

Disgruntled fan!
I thought the film sucked pretty hard, one of Dolph's worst. He was pretty bored too. Terrible story, terrible editing and despite the film being action packed and pretty decent in terms of budget, it's just very poorly constructed. The action is poorly edited and the sound is pretty bad too. The director on this is awful. Everything is so flatly filmed and lacking in energy. The continuity of the stock footage is terrible too.

Still, Dolph had to do this one, so he could get Command Performance made, and that one looks a lot better.
