It has virtually no plotline, the characters are two dimensional and the acting talent is almost nil.  Yet, with all of its flaws, you still can't help but love this gargantuan thrill machine. 
The directing duo of Keith Dixon and Cody Brown display the same exuberance that they have shown us time and time again.  Dixon is especially adept at directing the high-voltage action sequences that make up the bulk of the movie, while Brown shows off his talents through the more intimate dialogue sequences of the film.  You would think that the movie would suffer suffer of the clash between directors, but it does not.  In fact, it benefits treated to sheer genius.
Both directors act in the film, but most notably is Dixon's role as the hero (or anti-hero).  Dixon gives a deadpan delivery of his lines and action sequences that put Clint Eastwood to shame.  He plays the part so well, with that dash of sarcasm, that in his performance we see every western, cop and military hero that has come before.
Also benefiting the film is the presence of the energetic William Huxtable.  Huxtable only has to stand there to get great guffaws.  Not only is he blessed with a hilarious physical appearance, but he also has a great sense of comedic timing and slapstick humour.  Huxtable also shows off his ability to do action scenes with grace and finesse.
This movie is sure to shoot to the top of your list of all time favs.  Its wonderful blend of over-the-top violence and wry humour is sure to become a monstrous hit.
