DUELING CRITICS

"An inspired concept disguised as a routine revenge fest...Over the top, improbable, as cheesy as stuffed crust pizza and immensely entertaining...[It] qualifies it as one of the summer's most original creations "

- Rick Kisonak

"[A] ripped bag of garbage...A humourless revenge fantasy that is as grubby and dispiriting as any Charles Bronson Death Wish...Worse, [it] lacks even the pulp fury that elevates crummy action films into a half-way absorbing spectacle"

- Stephen Cole
