"I hope this doesn’t go down as just another little watched B action movie. Because while that’s true, it’s so much more. I’m all for more Maggie Q in my life, especially when she’s in an erotic fight scene with Michael Keaton. I hope she gets a real budget some day. It’s not as action heavy as most movies released the last few years, but it makes up for it with fantastic acting, a cool plot and amazing chemistry of the two lovable stars. "

"It aspires to be great but has an Icarus moment. Incongruous choices and some truly terrible dialog leaves many SMH moments. Maggie Q and Michael Keaton move like drunk giraffes wading through jello during their fight scenes. Oh well. I've paid for worse."

Marcus

"Maggie Q was excellent as always but the movie was not. This is a basic action movie that was lacking in many departments. It was watchable but overall had so much more potential."

Chailey

"Not bad."

"Pretty solid action movie. "

Alex

"Smart, witty action movie that respects the audience's intelligence. Maggie Q shines and Michael Keaton and Samuel L. Jackson bring what you expect but they're always so entertaining. "

"Maggie Q, this has nothing to do with you, you were great. This movie was hot garbage. It's just a gross male fantasy movie written by an old man to convince himself and other old men someone like Maggie Q would be into them. Good concept, lacked the execution of someone with perspective. Want something similar? Watch Kate, or gunpowder milkshake."
