Yes it's another low-budget Direct-to-video Dolph Lundgren film but this time he's surrounded by a damn decent cast of B-movie performers such as, Vinnie Jones, Robert Davi & Billy Zane.
Big old beefcake Dolph plays Axel, the head of security to a family of criminals but when the family falls apart & their empire begins to crumble Axel leaves & comes back three years later to find out what really happened & why.
Dolph is fine as always & plays the same type of special skilled Bad-Ass that he usually plays. Billy Zane plays one of the criminal families sons & big bro & goes to jail for three years when nutter Vinnie Jones takes over the family business with his uncle Robert Davi (with a dodgy British accent) & everyone is paranoid of each other because of the families fallout three years earlier. There's alot going on here with lots of twists & turns & raunchy scenes & some action here & there. Blood of Redemption is more of a crime thriller than an all out action flick & the cool cast do their best & are all pretty good.
I found Blood of Redemption to be entertaining & i liked it & i was surprised by the ending.
At times this little B-movie felt like a very low rent "The Departed" just mildly sometimes.
I did enjoy the cast of B movie veterans as I'm a fan of Dolph Lundgren (The Punisher, Battle of the Damned) & Robert Davi (Maniac Cop 2&3, Predator 2) & i don't mind Billy Zane (Demon Knight, The Phantom) & Vinnie Jones (Escape Plan, The Condemned) & the actors in the movie were fine too.
Nothing special but still a fun B-movie Crime Thriller.
