Although just about everything about this film is bad, it's doesn't necessarily harm the viewing experience. The struggling actors evoke sympathy rather than pity, the story allows for a nice game of plot hole bingo and the editing gives you a change to see what actors are doing while they wait for their cue! Every fight has people falling too early or waiting for the punch, every dialogue has moments where you can just see the attention slowly move from one actor to the other... wait for it... and there's the next line!It's not often you see a bad guy with a lisp, or a Mexican standoff on bikes. The English speaking Dutch being played by Dutch speaking English (yes, that's our accent, deal with it) give the whole thing an absurdistic feel, and the fight scene where the former techno-house band The Party Animals suddenly show up is so superfluous it made me look up how to spell superfluous.Which makes one wonder, it's strange how a film with so many redundant appearances of professional K1/kickbox/cage fighters can have such horribly choreographed fight scenes. But it does.Really the only plus of the entire movie is Monique (Alison Carroll), with an actual British accent (thank God!) and a surprisingly convincing Tomb Raider appearance. If there were any rumours about actual actors in this film, it must've been about her. Other than that, the most desperate bunch of Dutch third rate actors has been summoned up, topped off by a (short) surprise appearance of Holland's most smirking comedian: Jörgen Raymann. You'll love it!

Oh God it's so bad it hurts. The lead "actor" is a wooden plank, the others are laughable except Michael Madsen who is probably still laughing about how easy he can get money. Or anything else they paid him with.The director obviously wanted to do a Bourne movie but failed to do anything resembling any kind of decent movie.Some said there is no end to the story, which is true, but I'm afraid it's worst than that. They planned to do a sequel ! Ridiculous scenes are in a plenty: a specially trained agent being beaten by two girls, the lead actress shooting with a gun in each hand although she can barely hold them, a shootout in the streets during a chase ... on bike ! (Yes, we're in Amsterdam.The action scenes are badly filmed and the fight scenes are badly choreographed. And the story is so unoriginal it's quickly boring since you already know what's going to happen next.I suppose the director can't do worst on his next movie but will he do better? 0/10

OK. Cred for producing a film for just half a million. But....Is this like the banking crisis? Does the production team sit through an early cut and say "Well, we spent all the money, so we HAVE to release it, even though it sucks".Because if they thought this bit of rubbish was any good, someone wasted their money.Michael Madsen. You know what? Because it was a solo piece he could have, (maybe did?), shot at home, he does a halfway decent job.No-one else is worth anything. Dialogue, direction, acting, and - omg - fight direction - all suck. In spades.And while I'm on it.... 4 positive reviews, all from people who've never reviewed anything before. Is there NO WAY IMDb can do something about this?No way this even strays into 'so bad its good' territory.Its just bad. Save your time and money.Thumbs up for making it for half a million. If they recover even half, it'll be down to the highly mis-representative trailer.

This film's got some great scenes and one liners and really kicked some ass. It reminded me of a kind of seventies vibe with some funny villains and a whole bunch of sleezy stuff like an old Shaft movie but with some cool action. Back to VHS land! They do a funny/cool shoot out on bikes...what?! some of the acting's a bit stiff but so was Jean Claude in his day? Right? Plus it's got some heavy MMA guys too. Love Madsen. Alison Carroll is great too as the 'stripper with guns' ha ha. as the dude in Gladiator says 'are you not entertained?' if you want a documentary watch HBO. if you want art go to a gallery. if you want 90 minutes whacked out in Amsterdam go for Amsterdam Heavy
