Viewing Notes

Basically a DTV kind of movie in every sense. Just feels like it was made for television. I knew Adkins was the villain but he usually does a good villain despite me preferring him as a good guy. Here he is suitably over the top and probably the highlight even tho his character is awful. Seems like a paycheck movie for him as this is barely watchable for even my standards. At least I could work on sorting trash and not feel like I was missing anything.

Weird bc director Bartkowiak has made some decent and / or interesting films but maybe he was constrained by the budget. I can give a point up for Adkins and Remar duking it out and Adkins getting throttled by a heroine’s aunt.
