Yeah, this movie is just as stupid as any other Uwe Boll movie. This was pretty much the guy's middle finger to America. I mean, how does a guy even come across weapons like an MP7 much less 2 of them and a MP9. And no cop has an AR-15? Bullshit.

I did think it was odd that nobody else had a gun. Of course, if a heavily armed and armored maniac with automatic weapons was storming down the street, you may think twice about engaging. Still, a .30-06 probably could have put him down with little difficulty. Y'know, I think this film may have been trying to get the message across "People shouldn't have guns. They'll go on rampages." For me, it did the opposite. If someone had a rifle and used it, everything would have been stopped. -SasquatchJim.
