This is a good film for the first couple of times but then seems a bit boring but I just watch it for the fight scenes. This story is about British Royal Marine Eric 'Hawk' Kelly (Gary Daniels) who is out to get answers and draw blood when he arrives in New York to investigate his step brothers brutal murder. With the help of streetwise detective Lizzie Hampton, Hawk uncovers the most lucrative of black market plots - the theft and sale of human organs! Hawk meets exotic blade and stickfighting artist Garr (Cass Magda) who is the one responsible for his brother's death.

Great Movie, Great Acting, Etc........2003-01-14

This was a great movie from start to finish, the acting was on point, no bad scenes, and the fights were great. If your looking for a great movie that you haven't seen, make sure to pick this one up !!!

fast forward the plot and bring on the action.......2000-09-05

If I could see Gary Daniels kick butt for two hours strait I would have that tape playing in my house 24\7. Unfortunately some of his movies have been cursed not only with a plot, but with a really bad one. The acting is fine but when a nine-year-old writes a script there is only so much good acting can do. The fights are great. If this movie had a better editor or a director who knew the advantages of changing angles or say a writer who graduated high school this could be a 5 star movie easily. Daniels is the best!

Good if you like Gary.......2003-05-13

This is clearly not a high budget movie, but I nonetheless liked it and feel that it is worth seeing.

If you've read my other reviews of Gary Daniels' movies, you'll know that I watch because of him in particular. He's an amazingly good-looking and appealing guy. In this movie, he's a work of art -- flawlessly perfect from head to toe. He gets to show off his impressive physique in several scenes, displaying outstanding shape, proportion, and definition. And there is a love interest explored. Indeed, there is even a sex scene, albeit it far too brief and chaste for a guy who has this amount of sex appeal. (How can directors put a man this beautiful into a movie and not capitalize upon his sex appeal? It just doesn't make any sense). If you enjoy looking at Gary, then you must get this DVD, moreso than perhaps any other.

Yes, the plot is your typical martial arts story line of "You're a bad guy who killed my relative, so I'm coming after you out of revenge, and will kill you with my fists and feet and impressive martial arts skills". But the movie does have more humor to it than most of Gary's movies (some of it a bit gruesome though). So if you're into the Jackie Chan type of martial arts movie where there's something "whimsical" thrown in every now and then, you may appreciate that aspect. I'm not into martials arts per se, and except for the final fight scene which drags on far too long for my tastes, this movie had enough plot and character development inbetween fight scenes to keep my interest going whereas most martial arts movies can be a snoozefest for me. I really liked watching Gary here because he does more acting than in some other movies, and his character gets to explore his personal/social side.

The DVD quality is not the greatest, but it's hard to quibble about what you're looking at when it's Gary's pretty face onscreen. The DVD has a choice of english or french language track. No closed captioning. It has scene selections. The special features aren't special, and consist of 2 biographies of people who apparently are part of the company that produced this DVD, and a mini-documentary in french about what appears to be the same company.
