Average action. Not more, no less., 24 May 2009
5/10

Nothing special about this one. Uwe Boll gets beaten for several of his movies, so after watching this one i assume he has improved...? The camera work is decent, the action is explosive, the acting is average to poor, the story is predictable, the sex scene is laughable and my low expectations were not disappointed. If you want a cheap action flick, you're not going wrong with this one.

For the game pro's in here: This movie is NOT made after "Far Cry: Crysis", but it's predecessor "Far Cry" and only that. Check the box art of both games, Jack Carver was only in the first title and only there you'll see him wearing his infamous Hawaii-shirt.
