Man, glad this one was free haha.

Okay so I'm all about a good B movie. And I'll be honest Jason Patrick has been a favorite since The Lost Boys. Man did I love that movie as a kid. I was really hoping this one was going to be good, mainly because I wanted JP to have another go with a decent film even a cheesy B film. Sadly this one missed the mark. I do think it could've been much better, with a little more story and some decent lines. We don't care at all about anyone because we don't know enough about them. They really didn't do much talking at all and when they did it was just straight cheesy haha. The cartel shoot like blind people, their aim was straight trash. And then they fold and cry like little girls...come on, no way!! It could've been a good movie because the premise, although it's been done before, is always a story worth telling. The best part of this whole fiasco is Cam Gigandet! Without a doubt, he's the reason for 3 stars and we didn't get nearly enough of him. They didn't even nail the ending. Even with a small budget there could've been more sadly, there wasn't and it just misses the mark over and over. But it was free so there's that!
