Of course, this is a low budget movie. There are some problems with believability in this movie such as the police chief who dresses more like a hitman in the mafia. Some of the supporting cast overact their roles (the criminals in this movie are a little far fetched). On the other hand, Dolph Lungren himself does an amazing job in his role as a cop
who will not allow the greasy haired police chief to bully him into "tainting evidence' and lying on the witness stand in court.
Great action. Dolph looks very fit. Polly Shannon does a fine job as the new trainee officer in the unit.
I rate this video 5 stars because of Dolph Lungren and Polly Shannon.
On the downside, the director needs to be sure that the supporting cast (including the criminals) are more believable in their roles.
Notwithstanding the greasy haired police chief who was obviously a crooked cop, I would recommend this Dolph Lungren movie just because Dolph has an exciting stage presence-

This was the best movie I've ever seen since my last Ed Woods flick a few decades ago. Buy it. Watch it. Then buy it again.

don't know why dolph lundgren never got the chance to upgrade himself from the b or c movies to a level. all of his movies either sucked big time or totally lukewarm and mediocre, unworthy of wasting any time or word to give a detailed review, unlike steven seagal, who at least had some prime time then keep going down the hill, lundgren never reached any hilltop but always struggled in the deep valley with lousy screenplay, lousy dialogue, lousy plot, lousy scenario....and now he's trying so hard to come back before he becomes too old for being an action hero, he's even tried to direct couple of action movies recently. but sadly speaking, none of his tryings ever paid off, his movies still looked so deadbeat and sometimes even ridiculous. this one is not so exceptional from the other, except even more horrible and hollow. what a shame for a guy tried so hard but always failed.
