Trivia:

Scott Adkins was originally cast as Rostow Pawlak but due to filming delays he dropped out. Holt McCallany then accepted the role.

Goofs:

Factual errors: Early in the movie there is a news report stating "a trove of arms from German military forces were discovered in Pakistan". While the reporter specifically says "German military" equipment it shows British SA80 rifles as the supposed German military equipment. Germans do not use the British SA80 rifle platform, instead using their own weapons manufactured in-country.

Decent

I wasn't expecting much but this was okay. its a straight to DVD action movie so don't go looking for Oscar winning acting or million dollar sets. but the action is good the story is pretty much expected but there are a few twists that keep it interesting. Vinnie is good, randy kicks some ass and i liked this movie. hope you do too. but just keep in mind its a straight to DVD movie featuring a retired UFC fighter :o) if your looking for an amazing action packed block buster involving the hijacking of a plane watch die hard 2 or con air. but if you've seen those and feel like throwing something on and eating some popcorn give this one a try.
