The script for this action vehicle is like something you'd find under the cushions of Steven Seagal's couch, but Diesel, to his credit, digs into his role as if it were Hamlet.

This is disappointingly routine stuff from Gray, but the movie does boast one disaster area of a shoot-out and a nifty denouement.
Derek Adams, Time Out
Rotten
The film would be totally unwatchable without the very real charisma of Diesel.
Jami Bernard, New York Daily News
Rotten
Once thoughts of revenge fill the head of Diesel's Sean Vetter, the direction of the story unfortunately goes south.
Robert Koehler, Variety
Rotten
[I]t's well made, but we've seen all of this, so many times before.
