Trivia
The ringtone of the Sat-phone Cain uses, is the same one as used in Jurassic Park 3

Goofs
20-minutes in, Cain is firing a rifle in a hallway. The camera is behind him and over his right shoulder as he fires. It switches to slo-mo and you can clearly see the "spent" rounds being expended from the chamber are intact, rubber-tipped prop rounds meant to mimic the expended casings. Alternate Explanation: It appears that the shell casings the AR-15/M-16 series rifle is ejecting are actually from blank rounds. Instead of a rubber tip, the blank round has gunpowder in it, and they crimp the tip of the casing. This allows the rifle to fire, eject the round, and with the gas from the round, cause the next round to load, just as if it were a live round. This also explains why there is no muzzle flash since, for the process to work, they must plug the barrel.

Painful...

I agree with an earlier reviewer: I'm not sure I'll make it through to the end. 20 minutes in and I already have a strong suspicion that this might be the worst movie I've ever watched.

This movie is absolutely terrible in every way. Plot, conversation, acting... Everything. I'll give you an example:

In one scene the main character is having a flashback. He's in a (terrible as usual) conversation with the bad guy, Eddie. Eddie is holding a glas of tequila in his left hand and his hair is up in a ponytail. Cut to another angle and all of a sudden his hair is down and the glas is gone. Cut back again and the ponytail and glas is back. Cut again. No ponytail and he takes a mouthful of tequila from the bottle. What the...? It's amazing to watch all the inconsistencies in this production. They are everywhere and they are hilarious.

I won't give anything away, but the end leaves me with a feeling that the producers of this mess will hit us with a sequel. I'm looking forward to it, but at the same time I don't think they will be able to raise enough money for it. I would love to see it. I haven't been this entertained in a while.

Was there a script or did they make the plot up as they went along? Was the budget over or under 5 bucks? Was this flick made by 4th graders? Did they make it this lousy just to win some kind of award? The questions are piling up minute by minute.

BTW: Did you know that the point of a satelite phone is that it's easily traceable? I just learned this.

I urge you to watch this movie. Watch it as a comedy/parody, not as an action flick. It should be used at every film school as an example on what NOT to do.

A note to some reviewers: You know that the average of 1-10 stars is 5 stars. Right? How can you give a movie you dislike as much as you say a 5 star review? Your words doesn't match your rating.
