A chance for old-timers to hook up

Warning: Spoilers
BLOOD OF REDEMPTION is one of those cheap, digital-looking B-movie thrillers that manages to amass an old-time cast and generally wastes them in a predictable and occasionally nonsensical storyline. The only reason I got any enjoyment out of it whatsoever is that I enjoy seeing once-great actors at work and I don't mind the action thriller genre either. This one starts out on a complex level, with an ageing Billy Zane betrayed by elders and forced to go on the run with the aid of an old buddy, as played by action hero Dolph Lundgren. Vinnie Jones pops up as the shouty villain of the hour while Roberts Davi and Miano play old-time gangsters. There's a wealth of violent action complete with CGI blood spatter and the like, while the film is generally dark and dingy and unsurprising.
