Terrible poster and the trailer looked generic and kinda cheap but I love Mel so I'll check it out when it's available digitally.

I agree,

After 10 minutes i started doing something else while watching it, and after 30 minutes i stopped watching it all together.

Yes it was. I'm surprised Mel agreed to do this pos.

Yes, it's really not good. Shame too, because I like a lot of the cast. I am surprised the three leads agreed to do this one.

I like Mel Gibson. Great actor and he did a great job in this but any way you look at this its a C grade direct TV flick. Poorly made, shot in one location, cheapie. Im sure Gibson shot his part in 48 hours earning $1 mill per day.

I love that he's embraced his older, curmudgeon side. He was fantastic in Blood Father. I guess he did this for the $1 mil a day, but the guy is worth $400+ million. Maybe he needed another boat...

Or just do it for fun! I think he looks good for his age. Its sad Hollywood is still keeping this guy blacklisted

As low budget as the poster looked. I'm hoping Mel just did this for a friend. Good villain role for David Zayas. That's about all I have to say about it.

Lots of negativity in this thread but I thought it was decent. Not especially good, but not terrible either.

It's an okay straight-to-video action-thriller that's somewhat elevated by the extreme weather element.

Don't watch it if you are only planning on seeing it for him. He's only in it for like 15-20 minutes at most, although he's good when he's on screen. Other than that it's a horrible B-movie.

I did end up watching it for Mel, he was good but the movie was pretty horrible, a waste of time really.
