SOME PLOT SPOILERS...If possible.
The film opens with a monologue with the most annoying French accent since "Tracy, I Love You." We discover that mercenaries are now called PMCs...oh the political correctness. 4 PMCs who work for Eric Roberts go into "Sector 4" to assassinate the number 3 Al Qaida. Although this was made in 2014 some guy named Bin Laden is still number one.
As it turns out, they have unexpected air support as they get captured. Nash (Olivier Gruner) manages to escape to return to his ex-wife (?) and kid who he hasn't taken to the Grand Canyon. Instead he does the Rocky thing at the gym. When he discovers his mates are still alive, he opts to return to rescue them. Having seen Eric Robert's films before he suspects there is something he is not being told and doesn't care if he spoils the plot for us too.
Before he goes on to rescue his team of 8 years, he has to go get specialized training from an Israeli, stuff that I would have expected he would already know like how to disarm a man with a banana. We watch two men swap a gun back and forth for several minutes. In one scene, where Nash uses his gun swapping experience to get a car, we get to see a large microphone in the upper right corner. Retakes cost money and God knows how much they had to spend to get a name like Eric Roberts.
Jillian Alysse plays the disagreeable wife who manages to deliver poorly written lines in an unconvincing fashion.
Not worth watching for free, except for maybe some MST value.
Parental Guide: F-bombs. No sex or nudity.
