"Mercenaries seize control of a remote resort hotel during a wedding and it's up to the best man, the groom and their drunken best friend to stop the terrorists and save the hostages."
Firstly the first half of the film takes an inordinate amount of time to actually get to the part where the mercenaries take over the hotel. During this time we are left wondering if the movie will ever get any better.
It's nice to have a few drinks it seems as they are in the hotel boozing it up before the wedding. There's nothing wrong with that but it's not really building up a story. Which lends itself well to the B-movie type movie this is.
Then it's time for action as some guys from the wedding parties past bust in and start shooting up the place. You wouldn't want to be a cook on this day as somehow they start with the kitchen staff.
Anyway the movie seems a bit bland, a bit dull, a bit lacking in substance and it's just a nice watch but nothing like a decent full on action movie. Sometimes a movie just isn't as good as the makers thought it would be and I guess they needed to pay the writers a lot more money or get better ones. Hey writing is a tough job but it's what makes or breaks a movie. At least that needs to be right or you've got a bad script and you end up with this sort of movie.
Dolph Lundgren's performance is memorable though. He's a great actor in anything. He brings a presence to anything he's in.
Thanks for reading.
