Review :
Misleading box cover resembling Tomb Raider. Is there anything below a B-Movie?
Maybe a bit harsh, but I have my reasons. To be honest, there is just as much good (as good as straight to video movies get) as bad in this one.
I should learn not to judge a movie by the box cover, due to being burned a few times recently by cool looking box covers and absolute crap in the movie. I wouldn't call this movie absolute crap, but it's nothing more than your average B-Movie. Except this B-Movie stars actual porn stars, trying to break through to the other side I presume.
Let me explain my problem with this movie starting with the box cover. On the front is a woman dressed very similar to Tomb Raider's Lara Croft. The revealing clothes with black gloves, gun in holster and two grenades around her neck. Nowhere in the movie do they use, need or show a grenade or a gun. I was expecting a low budget Tomb Raider action style movie and instead I got an average low budget movie set in a brothel with zero action.
Nothing what I expected which I believe to be the purpose of the box cover.
Ranting a little, so I'll go onto my next problem, which is actually the bigger of the two. Dru Berrymore (cleverly disguised as Nicole Hilbig) is not a good actress. She's not even a bad actress. She's not an actress, but a performer in a very different type of movie. The delivery of her lines was not up to par and I don't know if it was a thick accent or what but she annoyed me every time she spoke. In my opinion, she made the movie worse and should have been recast.
Chloe, however, billed as Chloe Nichole, did make a somewhat believable brothel madame. Could it be that is because she, too, is "acting" in a very similar way to her other movies? She did have the best scenes in the movie, but quite honestly, that was still not a great performance by any means.
Overall, the movie was pretty straightforward, not many plot twists or turns. Everything pretty much goes as expected. I wasn't pulling my hair out waiting for the movie to end, but it was pretty much in the middle of the road. 5 out of 10.
