Living in Tokyo, I'm sometimes late to the party when it comes to US TV shows. In this case, I had heard so much about this movie, I purchased it without much concern.
Within the first five minutes, I already had doubts. The sets and wardrobe were cheesy. The script was horrible, and the acting even worse. Oh no!
Hoping to find some redeeming value that would help me swallow the fact that I had paid real money to watch this "movie," I struggled mightily just to make it to the end of the story.
At the end, I was simply glad it was over. Truth be told, the blu-ray disc extras were more entertaining than the main feature.
The pseudo documentary on the making of the film offers more suspense and better acting than the film itself. Even the editing is more interesting.
I might watch the extras again, but probably not the feature.
In conclusion, if you love Bruce Campbell's character in Burn Notice, you may want to watch this once, simply to learn how Sam ended up where he did.
Otherwise, save yourself time, money, and regret: skip it.
