Prismark10 Cross (Steven Seagal) and Manning (Steve Austin) are some kind of black ops personnel who have been sent to decommission an old prison. It is holding two mysterious women who some mercenaries led by Michael Pare have been sent in to extract.It is up to Cross and Manning and their small team to save the base and protect the women and find out what is so valuable about them.What we get is a dimly lit, poorly edited, turgid film where the only villain is Pare out acts both the main leads.Seagal is fat and out of shape. Austin fares better, he gets to crack a few jokes and strangely both stars only appear in a few scenes together. The action scenes are flat with no imagination or even decent fights.It looks like a quickly made and cheap action movie made for the direct to TV market.

Uriah43 After escorting two new female prisoners to a secret detention facility "Cross" (Steven Seagal) and his men are essentially put in a holding pattern pending transportation to further escort the remaining prisoners to another location. However, one of the female prisoners named "Samantha Mendez" (Steph Song) is actually a CIA courier who happens to have secret information regarding a bank account worth millions of dollars and there are those who are willing to do whatever is necessary to obtain the device she is carrying. Along with that, the other female prisoner by the name of "Charlotte Walker" (Aliyah O'Brien) is also not who she appears to be and this creates yet another problem for Cross. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this was a standard action film which benefited from its isolated location but was hindered by the lack of lighting which the director (Keoni Waxman) apparently felt was necessary for the overall effect. Additionally, although Steph Song was definitely attractive, none of the actors really put in a stellar performance and this didn't particularly help the movie either. Be that as it may, although it certainly had room for improvement, it wasn't necessarily a bad film overall and I have rated it accordingly. Average.

Radish4ever The plot is simple, 2 black ops must oversee the transfer of 2 female prisoners who have vital top secret information, then terrorists, led by the excellent Michael Pare strike and take the prison over for the info. Unfortunate for them they would have succeeded but the 2 black ops are Stone cold Steve Austin and Steven Seagal. So you know the bad guys don't have a chance. If you had asked me 10 years ago, which 2 WWE wrestlers would make great film stars, it would have to be the Rock and Stone Cold. Good to see them doing well. Austin is his usually bad ass self and adds something to this type of movie. Michael Pare is menacing, no humour or likability to the bad guy, this really works and he is extremely menacing. Makes a change from the usual wise cracking baddie. With Steven Seagal you know what your getting, you know what to expect from him. All the women want him, all the men want to be him, if you (or 10 guys at once) get into a fight with him, you wont even land a punch on Mr Invincible Seagal. If he gives advice, you prick your ears and listen to every word he says, he knows more than you, if he takes a shot with his gun, its going to be on target every time, his bosses envy him, he is top of his trade and the best at what he does, whatever it is. Even his former martial art masters come to him for lessons..Yes Seagal wreaks ego but I just cant get enough of him so please don't ever Change Steven. film is a definite recommendation for some viewing where you don't have to put your brain into gear and enjoy an action/martial arts film the way it should be. Hope there is a sequel made.

FlashCallahan When former black ops operative Cross and his partner Manning are assigned to decommission an old prison, they must oversee the arrival of two mysterious female prisoners. Before long, an elite force of mercenaries assault the prison in search of the new arrivals. As the true identities of the women are revealed, Cross realises he's caught in the middle of something far bigger than he had imagined....If the new King of direct to Blu Ray action movies is Austin, then buy my player please. Everyone of his movies that he is billed first or second, is appalling, and to top it all off, he has no screen presence.At least in the eighties, action stars and something about them, and in the nineties, they were just stupidly over the top, you couldn't help but love them.The film goes for the last Die Hard route, two prisoners who have something, bad guys pretending to be someone they are not, and then the two heroes.Seagal proves in this, that he is past it, he is no longer convincing as an action star, and while I'm sure he has stamina and strength in reality, he doesn't convince in this movie, he stands around looking perplexed and slaps a few people.It's a new low for the star, I usually tolerate his poorest efforts, but this had med me irritated about twenty minutes in.Do yourself a favour, ignore this, and realise that Van Damme is still making decent movies, that look like Die Hard compared to this tripe.
