Blake was stupendous as solo, and she carried the show to an exceptionally high entertainment level – she is a remarkable actress.

In every respect this is a well-acted and choreographed moving-picture that is absolutely believable – it’s also entertaining. Lots of conspiracy, corruption and it’s also a well-told story of a great scout-sniper

The Crew is back again, with a couple of “new hands,” and doing their bad-a.. thing again. Lots of hard-bitten action and close-in fight’n and kick’n. The 2nd time around is as-good-as-the-first – perhaps even better! And, once again it’s pure entertainment for those who enjoy a high-octane action movie
