Another run-of-the-mill movie with no value whatsoever and not worth your time. The appeal disappears as soon as the leads are introduced. The acting of the lead actress is unbelievably wooden and you wonder how this could pass for a movie. Skip this one when you see this
The movie presented a very unique concept which I found so cool and watch-worthy. However, I was OVERLY disappointed with the others toppings on the cake. Please stop exposing love teams. They tend to get very boring movie after movie and characters are often underwritten to accommodate the fact that they are a "love team". Sam's character is definitely an underwritten one. His parents are both Filipinos, yet in the movie he has the American twang, which is kind of disturbing. Toni sometimes makes this face like "I need to go to the bathroom". Yes, the romantic connection was there, but I don't get why it had to be a trying-hard action flick that does not even fit the word "action". Toni does not deserve the role because she sounds like she's forcing the wind out of her throat, and Sam often looks like "Okay... what's next". There is nothing personal and biased about this. I wish the movie would have been transformed into a police station tracking down a potential assassin. Think The Manchurian Candidate + Hollywood Homicide. And cross Toni, Sam and Zanjoe out.
