I don't know what people are expecting but this was a decent action movie. The actors were good. It had a good plot. The action was well done. I think the only thing missing was Lorenzo lamas doesn't throw any kicks because he's a boxer in the movie. This movie is not anything special but it's entertaining and does not deserve a low rating because it's a standard direct-to-video movie. Danny Trejo only in a few scenes where there's talking but if you're a fan of Lorenzo lamas it's worth your time.

Danny Jackson (Lorenzo Lamas) is a fighter down on his luck fighting an exhibition match. He checks into a local motel. The clerk is a fan, but doesn't recognize him, even when he signs his name. His son (Connor Pryce),training to be a boxer, gets kidnapped for the child sex slave market. Danny Trejo has a minor role as the "Huggy Bear" bar owner informer. Jackson and his side kick fight to get his son back.

Lozenzo does not go Liam Neeson or Walking Tall as much as I would have liked. The fighting is a bit watered down but it is there. The title comes from the fact they cross a border and there is a cross there as Danny gets his faith back. Slightly pun-ish. They slip in a come to Jesus moment at the end, although the "J" word is carefully omitted.

Guide: Use of "S" word. Otherwise no swearing, sex, or nudity.

I've done some film work myself and I can tell weak, reading off of the script, ahem, "my character says this" acting from being into it and committed to the character. The boy is unconvincing and wooden and the fight scenes look like a class in acting school. When the lead actor fights the bald guy he stands like he is waiting patiently to be punched. I'm glad I got it from red Box because in the theater it would have been time to go get coffee. If you like student level film, it might be for you.
