The Mercenary

The acting could maybe slide by but would certainly win no awards. But the action scenes were contrived, and whoever was in charge of blood realism should go back to training school. Severed neck arteries won't shoot steady streams 4 feet. The "hero" character comes off too quiet, condescending to superiors, and introverted.

You should skip this and look for other action films with better ratings.

Here we have a pretty decent action flick. Coreographies and action scenes are pretty well done. On the other hand weak plot or script, but who cares on an action B movie. Overall a good one if you're in the mood of watching some action.

It was nice to see Dominiquie vandenberg in a main acting roll, these at the moment are hard to come by. Vandenberg usually plays a very minor roll in films and you may see him for between five to fifteen minutes a a movie, so seeing that this was a film being driven by Vandenberg I jumped t the chance to see it. First the good bits, yes there are a few, it was great to see Dominiquie vandenberg in a film at which he is the main actor. The fight scenes weren't bad, Pit Fighter and Perfect Sleep had better fight scenes. The action didn't let up and by the way it's full of blood sprays. Now the not so good points, where the film is set, it was made for cheap and this is why it is played out in a all deserted town. While fights were good, some were bad, let's shoot at the hero and miss when I am right by him, when this happens you know the film is cheap. Next time I would love to see Vandenberg in a bigger budget and maybe Isaac Florentine to direct it, now don't get me wrong, Jessie Johnson done a good job but I feel it was a wasted opportunity.

I am giving this film a five just because it was great to see Dominiquie vandenberg in a starring role, more please.

If your a fan, go on you tube and watch the prison break scene he did and then you will see just how good Vandenberg can be.

This movie is not that bad, sure the script or plot are weak but it is fun, perfect for easy viewing and in mood for something really light. Credits for the actions, quite well done!

The script is so primitive and the acting horrendous. The only tolerable acting was from the older priest. The fight scenes were a struggle to watch... Very disappointing.
