Excellent movie, particularly for the apparently small budget. Michael Jai White displays Martial arts skills that presents a realism more often seen in big budget productions. His pistol skills are equally impressive. Michael Jai is single handedly changing the image of African American males in lead roles. No dresses, no thugs, no bad cop and most importantly no freaks, just straight up beat downs.

That action stance with the two guns and the legs...looks like a poster shot right out of a action/comedy Will Ferrell movie. Worth the watch though. Action!

Nicely written movie,seems to heading for a series of Falcon movies, Michael Jai White is awesome as usual in this flick,lots of fight scenes,choreographed well. Can't wait for the next movie,and more intense villains,give him a love interest as well.
