This film begins with a DEA agent named "Jack Ryan" (David Bradley) and his brother "Phillip Ryan" (Todd Jensen) cornering a suspect in an abandoned building where he has taken a young woman as a hostage. Although warned by his brother to wait for a SWAT team in accordance with police protocol Jack decides to act immediately and shoots and kills the man instead. It then turns out that this particular person was the son of a very prominent newspaper owner and as a result the resulting bad press leaves a black mark on Jack's record which causes him to resign from the DEA. But rather than simply living a peaceful life afterward Jack gets a package from Phillip telling him that he is in trouble on the Caribbean island of St. Keith and needs his help. What Jack doesn't realize is that Phillip has been captured and a rich drug lord by the name of "Kessel" (John Rhys-Davies) has had him turned into a cyborg who will obey his every command. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that although it had an interesting plot and plenty of pyrotechnics the action scenes seemed too artificial and at times the acting was equally insufficient. That's not to say that this film was necessarily bad but it definitely needed a bit more polish and for that reason I have rated it accordingly. Slightly below average.
