- Very anti-gun movie --AdAstra2009 00:03, 16 November 2010 (UTC)
I couldn't make it past the first 30min. It pissed me off too much to continue. -Anonymous
- P.S. For those unfamiliar with this film, its main premise is that gun makers are responsible for all the violence in the world, guns are inherently evil, and that the second amendment should be abolished (seriously). That last one was the most egregious of them all. -Anonymous
- I saw this movie years ago when it debuted on TV (about eight years ago now). It infuriated me, too, but I took comfort in the fact that it completely failed to get a theatrical release (despite starring Wesley Snipes, who was still a box office draw back in those days). :) -MT2008 01:12, 16 November 2010 (UTC)
- Snipes is a hypocrite. He's made himself a fairly wealthy person making movies involving lots of firearms. Then he makes this dreck. Must have been partially financed by the Brady Campaign.--Jcordell 02:27, 16 November 2010 (UTC)
- Stallone, Costner, Connery, Ford, and even Eastwood, Harmon, Walken, and Schwarzenegger to an extent, have all made carriers playing badass tough guys who use guns to solve all their problems, yet then turn around to bash guns and gun owners as evil. At least Bruce Willis and James Earl Jones are on our side. -Anonymous
- Don't forget Kurt Russell he's an NRA member. --Predator20 03:12, 16 November 2010 (UTC)
- Also interestingly Wesley Snipes was charged in 1993 for carrying a loaded handgun, you won't that bit of info on wikipedia --AdAstra2009 03:17, 16 November 2010 (UTC)

- Another thing: The director of this movie, Kari Skogland, also directed a 2005 made-for-TV movie called Rapid Fire starring Jason Gedrick (not to be confused with the Brandon Lee movie of the same name), which was about the 1980 Norco, CA bank robbery. I remember that movie depicted the perps buying full-auto HK33s and ARs at a gun store, although the anti-gun politics were otherwise minimal compared to this movie. -MT2008 03:48, 16 November 2010 (UTC)
