5/10
Not that bad...

This movie wasn't bad at all. It contains some cheesy dialogs, Jacks English pronunciation was kinda funny. Also that evil woman-soldier acted and talked like terminator... with face without any expression.

But... there were nice action scenes, nice explosions and fights. Really good-looking chase with altered super soldier in factory. It contained some parkour elements which seemed pretty refreshing to me.

Movie doesn't look cheap and it surprised me, I was expecting total rubbish.

Considering FarCry game, many elements in movie were taken from it. Humwees with machine-guns, boats with machine-guns... head-shots. But there were no white sand beach and location wasn't like jungle paradise (which could be seen in game). I haven't seen many movies based on computer games, but I think this one is quite good. Much better than TombRaider, which was trying to be very serious. This movie is light, but not much as Postal... which belongs to another category.
