Summary: It should be illegal to release movies this bad
Review: Absolutely the worst, homemade, most God-awful movie you'll ever waste time watching. It was in theatres for about 2 days, which was bout 47 hours and 45 minutes too long... I'm a big fan of independent films but this was worse than any homemade college movie I've ever seen! Save yourself!!!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: A nice film with fresh faces
Review: Eric Schwab, the finest up and coming director in Hollywood, puts out an ok film on a relatively low budget. The actors are some of the newest in Hollywood (You can tell). The film didn't get many viewers in theaters because it came out the week of 9/11 but the professional reviews at that time were mostly unfavorable. I can see why.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This little unknown film could be an award winner
Review: I did not see the movie in the theater but I'm glad I got to see it the privacy of my home. The plot was well thought out and kept you entertained for 2 hours. I wish they could have made it a little longer to further develop certain scenes. The directing was excellent and cinematography was nearly flawless. The music was great so I suggest you get your copy on DVD if possible. This is definitely a movie for the collection.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Much better than given credit for.
Review: I have to admit that I was pleasantly surprised by how good this movie was. The characters had just enough quirk to make them interesting, especially Vincent Ventresca as Marshal, who stole the show during his on-screen time.

My only problem with this movie was that there were times were things were progressing way too fast. This is most prevalent in the begining of the movie. But as soon as the introductions are over, the flow begins to fall into place nicely.

I recomend this movie for those looking for an interesting indepenent film starring some great, up and coming actors.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Fun Ride
Review: I LOVED this film and found it thoroughly enjoyable. It drew me in and kept me watching. To see these characters go through the changes they go through was truly amazing to me. Monet Mazur was wonderful as well as geogeous and Carmine Giovinazzo did a great job along with Vincent Ventresca who plays his character to the edge. I thought the film was well cast, the acting was superb, the locations were amazing and the story original. Just sit back and enjoy the ride because this one is worth the trip. I give it thumbs up. If you can't enjoy this film you're looking waaay to deep. Relax and enjoy.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Surprising movie with twists and turns...
Review: I surprisingly enjoyed this movie especially after reading the reviews by the "professionals". Forget those "pro critics". This film is a lot of fun. There were a lot of twists and turns. I thought Vincent Ventresca was really good looking. I'd love to go out with him. And Monet Mazur is really great looking. She really stands up for herself when it comes down to it.
Cool Film!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It's solid and I recommend it !!!
Review: I watched this film at my girlfriend's house the other night. I asked her way she bought it and she said her friends recommended it. Now I know why. The acting was really good. It had a nice combination of action and romance. The cinematography was the best I've seen in years. The director really put it all together into well balanced, well orchestrated film that keeps you interested through out. The climatic scene in the movie was outstanding and kept me on the end of my seat. It's solid and I recommend it.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: This is no diamond in the rough...
Review: I'm not sure why I decided to buy this flick - probably the low price and the positive reviews.

It turned out to be a mistake.

This movie is awful. Although I like "B" movies and direct-to-video titles that are fun to watch, either because of a good storyline or great actors, this movie has none of those things. The story is weak, the acting is uninspired, and the direction is atrocious.

Those reviews saying this movie is awesome have to be shills - no way. AVOID.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Excellent first effort
Review: Mr Schwab's strengths shown through as a director. The action sequences are worth the rental in itself. There are two amzaing scenes (1) high speed car race through the mountains of California and (2) the climax in the LA subway.
One other notable is Monet Mazur who is destined to major stardom.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Terrible!
Review: My freind was a fan of Carmine Giovinazzo, and although he's good, the direction and storyline of this movie just seemed impossible to work with... I understand that Eric Schwab is a begining director / writer , but gosh... I mean, you'd think other people would watch the dailys and recomend a few things! Perhaps a plot would help! I'm just upset that my freind actually bought this DVD from Amazon....
