I know this Paul Anderson's first real film but I didn't like it. It was a little below par in plot and dialog. I thought the action scenes were rather slow for a self-proclaimed 'fast-pace' movie and that the lines spoken were kind of corny to say the least. Sadie Frost isn't that good looking either, I really wonder why Jude Law married her as he could probably get any girl he wanted to. After all is said and done this was alright considering it was semi-low-budget but it's still not one that's worth a second look. I did receive gratification in recognizing a few familiar faces from back when they weren't so famous especially Eamonn Walker who's notorious for playing Kareem Said on HBO's show "OZ". Despite all this I was still unimpressed though.

Final Whipping:

Movies: Not here, not now!

DVD Purchase: Only if you have no better way to spend paper currency.

Rental: It's probably one of those films you want to see just so you can say that you saw it and get credit for doing so.
