Had all the atmosphere of the Statham title, and in my personal opinion it actually managed to exceed it a little...
In any event, not usually that into prequels...but I'd actually be interested in watching something that actually bridges the gap a bit more between the two films.
It's a good watch. Would make a great beer movie.
Felt very 80's to me. I liked it.
Ditto.

As a straight-to-dvd prequel, it's really good! Along with the action sequences the way they managed & developed the story I think they did quite better job than the 2008 Jason Statham version.

You mean what happened to that hot chick Tanit Phoenix in between the 2 films? :D
