I truly can't say that the movie is a great one...
It's a budget movie, and that shows.
The filming locations (although stunning) aren't really convincing of (how I picture) Afghanistan's nature.
Not always very convincing special effects...
But I've got to hand it to Johnny Strong (Mirko), he was not only co-writer/co-director/co-main character, but he also was Head of Post Production, Editor and Color, Original score & music, Head of sound design, Lead VFX Design, Makeup and special effects makeup, Camera operator, Stunt Coordinator, Props, Head of Lighting, Miniatures and Miniature SFX all designed, build, and filmed by Johnny Strong.
So he had a lot of tasks to do in this movie, and I don't know if that's always a good thing, but he gets some kudos for that!
The main reason it got a 6 from me is: ''Zoe'' aka Athena Durner.
She acted in a very convincing way, she put down a great character!
She did a great job in making the film a lot more watchable!
I think a new star is born here!!
