Sorry, this movie sucks

The acting in this movie is really good.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

I don't normally DO action or martial arts films. I'm a girly girl. But every so often you have to relent and let the boyfriend watch something HE wants.The Purifiers was it. He followed the production of this in magazines in the UK like Impact and Combat along with another UK action feature. We had a double bill of this and Richard Jobson's 'Purifiers'.Comparing the two is like chalk and cheese (although they both share similar actors and stunt men and where made around the same time). One is interesting. Enjoyable. Fun. And exciting. The other is The Purifiers.If you have the choice of watching one or the other Left For Dead is the one to go with.This film is just dull, pointless and badly acted toss. Alexander should be shot for crimes against acting. Oh well could be worse... at least I had the momory of Left For Dead to erase this!

To tell ya the truth, I watched this movie because someone told me it was a great movie. I also thought "well, if that guy from Lord Of The Rings is in it, it must be great, because I loved Lord of the Rings". Well, turns out, you shouldn't trust the movie to be great just because there's a great actor in it. First of all, it was really boring like other comments have said. I had a problem keeping interested with it. And Dominic Monaghan's role in the movie just didn't look good on him. He's not meant to play those kinds of roles... sorry. He should stick to the same kind of character he plays in Lost. This is certainly a movie you'll want to rent before buying if you really want to see it... and frankly, I'm really glad I did so, because this is a movie I don't want to watch several times. This is just my opinion. Others might find that they like this sort of movie. Don't get me wrong, there are some parts in it worthwatching... and the ending is one of them.

Before you read on, I'm not positive this is a spoiler, or at least part of it, that's why I checked the box.I loved it! I mean, yeah the plot was a little...shady??...um, mehish. The cinematography was beautiful and the lighting was really...experimental, but it worked. The only thing I didn't like (besides the language and the mehish plot) was the split screen parts. It was too much to be watching and too fast.Dominic however, was fantastic (maybe I'm a bit biased?)and I'm really pleased to see him in a darker sort of role. He got out of his comfort zone and I loved it.

It is not as bad as I make it sound with the summary. To be honest, I rented this movie strictly because Dominic Monaghan was in it. I had read some bad reviews and was expecting a less than mediocre film. All the same, Dom had looked good in the previews and I figured that if nothing else Dom would be pretty. Dom was pretty. He also did a really good job playing the bad guy. At the end of the movie both my friend and I (we're both big Dom fans) were waiting for somebody to kill him and they did, thank you very much. He is not the main character, but I loved the main character, John. Gordon Alexander did a fantabulous job portraying John as the man who will always stick to what he knows is right and fight what is wrong. There is something of an artistic way this film is done and sometimes it works...other times it doesn't. I still like it a lot and plan on buying on it. It is not what most people would expect when they see the preview, but it is worth a watch.
