About this movie

Miles (DANIEL RADCLIFFE) is stuck in a dead-end job, still in love with his ex-girlfriend Nova.

Miles soon finds himself caught up in the game and forced to fight in a battle to the death. Initially, Miles' lifetime of running from his problems pays off as he manages to elude his first opponent but when Nova is kidnapped, he must finally stop running and overcome his fears to fight for the girl he loves.

Ratings and reviews

Too much red cordial in this one. The idea had some potential that wasn't fulfilled by a cast of hammy actors (Weaving was particularly weak), crudely frenetic direction and a soundtrack that tried to be edgy but came off noisy. Not the worst way to spend an evening but could have been executed a lot more competently.

well paced, creative dialogue and wicked sound track. That's all on top of intense camera rolls and blood spattering graphics and Auckland NZ ally ways look for the moose graphite!!!! love a bit of troll bashing and keyboard warrior gone loco is a great plot line, watch with like minded fools so yelling at tv is compulsory.

Daniel Radcliffe is a darn good legend in this one. Bang on soundtrack, ridiculously awesome characters, and - a satisfyingly witty script. Anything less than 5 stars would be an insult.
