My thoughts
An impressive cast, but still a failed attempt to remake Fast and the Furious with bikers instead. You can see them try, but the story and acting ain't convincing, and the cliches don't help. In fact, you can see them coming.
The stunts are nice though, but with a stunt crew like in this movie, they could have presented us more physical action. Why didn't they use the martial artists in their team: Ho Sung Pak, Xuyen Valdivia, Chris Leps, etc. Wasted.......
Luckily the makers keep the speed in the movie, so if you don't mind the typical acting, you might still enjoy the movie, and the many chases and action sequences. |
