If you want to pass some time watching a pretty good "b" flick about a man fighting an evil bigger than himself in a way only "b" movie heroes can do it, and a bad dude played by Samuel L Jackson in a way only Samuel L Jackson can slam it, with plenty of action, fighting and winner satisfaction, then this is the movie for your free time.Your review does not contain enough lines - the minimum length for reviews is 10 lines of text.Your review does not contain enough lines - the minimum length for reviews is 10 lines of text.Your review does not contain enough lines - the minimum length for reviews is 10 lines of text.Your review does not contain enough lines - the minimum length for reviews is 10 lines of text.

In a few words: disgusting and brainless movie! Not worth watching. Contains horrible scenes. And because i'm forced to write minimum 10 lines, about a worthless movie i should repeat some...

Some guy (who cares - he's the hero) gets abducted by one of those sinister organisations who stage online fights to the death to amuse the masses when X-Factor isn't on telly. He has to fight for his freedom, or escape, or do something like that.Let's face it, the only reason this got made is because Samuel L Jackson is in it. By and large, the acting is terrible from everyone - even the man himself. He's okay, but he could act his way through this with his eyes closed. Although why he chose to do this film while he is still being offered projects like The Avengers in anyone's guess! The fight scenes aren't bad. They have added 'cool' effect to them thanks to some trendy slow-mo, but the story (and I use the word 'story' in its loosest possible terms) is predictable and riddled with clichés (and 'twists' you can see coming a mile off). However, despite all this, the film isn't totally unwatchable.For some reason it's not that bad. If you don't mind your films pretty dumbed down and badly acted then get a couple of beers in plus an extra large bucket of popcorn, put your mind on hold and watch the (CGI) blood flow.

Well, you've seen it all before, it's not a new concept but it's still pretty interesting. I sat through the whole movie without any problems at all. Sure, some things were pretty stupid like that an infamous mass murderer wouldn't have more security or that you cannot possibly survive the amount beating the main character receives.I liked the movie but unfortunately it was too average. The acting is nothing to complain about but the characters are pretty boring. Samuel L. Jackson gives us a typical villain and Kellan Lutz gives us the usual hero, nothing special on that front.I liked Daniel Dae Kim's character but he had a too small a role. It had every better if they had developed his character more then I would care a lot more about the people who died. There are lots of people who die but I did not think I really cared it was unfortunate and something that they could have worked more with.This is by no means comparable to Hunger Games/BR, but give it a shot if you just want some pretty OK entertainment.
