Review
This film is the basis for over the top, more bodies than bullets action films. Although there was a bad following of the amount of crap in this particular genre, its the best of the bunch.
I wouldn't go as far to say it's like Crank and that its mocking itself but you can't help but think the writers were having a laugh when they wrote this dialogue.
The film is also sentimental to me and my pals when we would simply watch this and relish in its unbelievable stunts and notorious flaws.
Rating : 9/10
Let off some steam, Bennett!
This film has some of the funniest and most memorable lines of any action film and the final scene registers one of the highest body counts ever seen on celluloid. I wouldn't have it any other way. What a film!
