An escaped convict, Sam Gillen travels to a farm to search for money from an earlier heist. While out on the property, he meets pretty single mother Clydie and her kids, Mookie and Bree, who are being intimidated by local land developer Franklin Hale. After falling for Clydie, Sam decides to stay and help defend the farm from Hale's thugs, despite the risk that it means to him as a wanted man.

Director Robert Harmon brings a few fresh touches to the basic action movie style.

A relentlessly corny and shamelessly derivative vehicle.

When Van Damme is doing what he does best -- narcissistically displaying his body and thumping the bad guys -- the film works reasonably well.

2.5/4

The arms-length atmosphere is, at least, alleviated by Van Damme’s typically stirring work and the inclusion of a few action-packed interludes...

The plot is a succession of flimsy excuses for dressing Van Damme up and stripping him down again.

Van Damme's new slugfest runs along a familiar trail, going nowhere in particular.

The story was to pushed, you didn’t really feel it was authentic. I think the boy did the best acting of anyone.

فلم متوسط. القصة متوسطة لكنها تفتقد للعمق الدرامي. الممثلين تمثيلهم مستوى واحد من بداية الفلم لنهايتة ما تغير شيء و البطل اداءة الحركي جيد رغم ان الكامرة تقطع كثيرا اثناء القتالات لكن شخصيتة سطحية الطفل اقنعني بتمثيلة اكثر من البطل . البطلة ادائها متباين بين الجيد و ردت الفعل المبالغ بها. المخرج عرض القصة بين السرعة بالاحداث و بين الممل كان ممكن يهدي شوية و يعطي مساحة للقصة و الشخصيات . التصوير جيد في القتالات و الحركة لكن فيما عدا ذالك فهو باهت و ضعيف. الموسيقى متوسطة و بعض المشاهد مزعجة. بختصار الفلم كحركة و اكشن متوسط ليس قوي و لا جيد ولا ضعيف متوسط اما كدراما فهو سطحي و يفتقر للعمق الدرامي.

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são de ação fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajudou a melhorar o filme, nem o Jean Claude Van Damme para salvar, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom.

A patient, romantic film from the Van Damme canon, this one trades the flashy martial arts for big-hearted drama. Jean-Claude purists will not be disappointed! The film’s down-home, country conflict has gotten better with age, the central character relationships are sweet and tender, and there’s some solid action to boot!
