7/10
1998
A Kirk Wong Film
Protagonist(s): Mark Wahlberg, China Chow
Antagonist(s): Lou Diamond Phillips
Run-time: 1 hour 31 minutes
When a crew of mercenaries set out on an independent kidnapping gig they bite off more than they can chew, and it's every merc for himself.
The plot is a little flimsy, but supported by the comedy, explosions and martial arts.
The physics involved in many of the stunts seems a little shoddy, but the entertainment value outweighs that side of the film.
It is purely entertainment and only has one simple message; always rewind and return video tapes on time.
I recommend this film for an action evening of lesser thought requirements.
