Could have done without the slaughterhouse footage
29 May 2018
Adkins runs some martial arts place. Of course it's not doing well financially and some bad guys are offering to buy it off for pennies. Adkins kicks their butts. A friend offers to help him by getting him a job with mobster Tommy. He's hired as a debt collector and partnered with the more seasoned "Sue." From the get-go things are more dangerous than Sue claimes and Adkins has to risk his life and kick butt. After a couple of jobs they are introduced to uber bad guy Barbosa. He wants them to find a some Irish kid. Barbosa's main girl seems to have something to do with all this. They eventually track down the kid who everyone says is just a regular nice guy and sure enough, he is and he also has a daughter. At that point things are revealed and things get dangerous for the two.

The debt collector is your low budget B-movie, featured some good acting by the charismatic Vladimir Kulich and Mandylor. Adkins's acting doesn't impress this time around. The fight scenes are good but not outstanding. The story here is weak. We're supposed to feel for the Irish kid but he appears late in the movie so for the most part of the movie nothing goes on other than waiting for the next fight scene. The main problem I had was with the unnecessary and gruesome slaughterhouse footage. That alone left a nasty impression of the movie and its crew.
