Loved it, Wish I could find it., 25 January 2000
10/10
Author: (hiro75@prodigy.net) from Seattle, WA

I saw this movie at the 1998 Seattle Film Festival and loved it. Unfortunately, that was the last time it was ever available for me to see it. I wish a distributor would put it out on video or DVD in America. Unlike, the previous person that reviewed the film, I thought the action was well-paced and the cinematography was pretty good. Very cool action movie.
