Viewing Notes

Ripoff Day! for Junesploitation so I chose this one since I just got the dvd and it features Paul Walker. Calling it a ripoff even tho it’s produced by the same ppl that made District 13 and its sequel which this is based on. Most interesting thing is this just plays like a sidequel to the Fast & Furious franchise fitting in right between 2 Fast and Fast 4. And I enjoyed it within that framing rather than it being an inferior remake. DVD looks fine but wish I had this on Blu.

Wildest thing is that I was 100 percent certain I had not scene this movie and nothing about was recognizable. Yet not only have I logged it but I saw this in theater when it was released! WTF I’m dumbfounded by this. As Elon Musk would say… “concerning”
