All debates and discussions about this movie considered and withstanding, this still has to be one of the poorest quality movies I have ever watched. I have watched a few movies both good and bad over the years believe me. I try to find something redeeming in each movie but this movie seems to have little to redeem itself. The scripting is terrible 1/10. The acting (all apart from Ray Wise who is legend) is awful, it seems most people in this move were dragged off the street to act in it, Poor 1/10. Production value is poor, it is almost like the director had never made a movie before. I have seen better movies made on a Phone 1/10. The movie itself seems lost like the producers did not know where to go with the idea and you spend the 90minutes duration of this film waiting for it to get tot he point 1/10. I get the impression the writer of this movie does not really know people as the characters are poorly written and make judgments and decisions that average everyday folk would not even consider 1/10. Watch this movie and loose 90 minutes of your life for no good reason!! and I have never said this before in all the years I have been reviewing movies.

This is a Christian action-drama with top quality film production and a masterful performance in the main character. It is one of few Christian titles that has true Hollywood level production with no sex and no vulgarity. The main character struggles with a dark past that has a tight grip on his personality but also fuels his unsolicited battle with the bad guys. The script introduces us to the lead bad guy as a reformed criminal and takes him on a moral and spiritual roller coaster ride. The protagonist and antagonist clash in the darkness that haunts them both, even as the true Light is calling them. If you are not offended either by violence or by an overtly Christian message, this is an awesome film.

Two words: Brian Bosworth. Two more words: bad acting. And two more:horrible script. And how about: incoherent story. What the hell is going on? Is this really a movie? IMDb reviews require 10 lines of text. You don't need to read the spoilers or reviews. This is a pretty awful movie, even for an insomniac. Want to see some Rated G fighting among some biker thugs? Want to see a director straight out of Jr. College make his first bit of movies to pay off the Russian mob who loaned him the money for school and his HD camera? Do yourself a favor and skip it. These are some of the worst actors in Hollywood, including the worst writers. So we have hammer welding scooter trash robbing people in the desert, a slow witted retard martial arts expert with a Jason Bourne complex; Eric Roberts in a Sheriff cameo (what? Eric Roberts isn't the bad guy?) and some of the cheesy special effects since 1970's Kroft Super Show. Apparently the Russian mafia requires a certain amount of Brian Bosworth material to fulfill some sort of Eastern European debt.

Hi all, I just saw the movie and read some critics about it...I decided to write a critic as well because this was one off the oddest movies ever seen by me. First of all I'm Christian, Greek Orthodox and I like movies with religious or metaphysical subject, or around revelation so the argument that I would hate a movie talking about Christianity is off-topic. To start with, the movie's prologue makes you think that you'll gonna see some revelation stuff in it but except the lightnings and the earthquakes the rest of the 1st one hour is a typical action movie with some kind of filthy and nasty motorcycle bikers roaming the countryside and making people suffer. The scenario pays that much attention in the rift between the main hero and the motorcycle gang that loses the religious aim of the movie. The boundaries among being a thriller or an action movie are difficult to recognise. Of course the crisis of the protagonist and the sermon of the good religious shop owner doesn't have any deep meaning. The crisis can be cured with different ways and suggesting the pray to God in every problem someone may face is just arbitrary. The only "revelation" you will gonna see in this movie is some lightning balls that symbolize the souls of good people whom God took in paradise. OK, I can create such a low-budget effect in my computer too, should I put it in a video and name it "revelation"? Last but not least, I got annoyed by the hints about other religions. The motel-owner is clearly a Buddhist as we can see from the statue that he has in his motel and as long as he's Indian or something like this. After that we see the "bad" motel-owner threatening some innocent scared people if they don't pay him. This was clearly a hint, a bad one, as long as it aims in a particular religion. But maybe other people would disagree with me, who knows, that's my personal opinion. No any real revelation, low budget effects, wonders if it was an action or a religious movie, no deep meanings in the dialogues so I put only 2 for the thrilling and the action and another 1 for the actors. Byebye :)
