A really good action film. The storyline is quite imaginative, following a good contrast as a 'baddie' (Xander) who infiltrates a group and turns into a 'goodie'. Except for Diesel and Jackson, the actors are relatively unknown, but this does not affect the film at all. As usual, Jackson is great, and so is diesel. The other actors also act well in this film. The soundtrack is extremely good. It was released by universal pictures, and contains two discs. It contains tracks from artists such as Nelly, N*E*R*D and even the Queens of the stone age.
