First off I only felt inclined to write this review after seeing the shockingly low score and all the 1 star reviews that make no sense. Those people should really reconsider the way they view films. Criticizing a film like this for being cheap isn't exactly valid because the movie is a straight to video effort from a straight to video director with straight to video cast members and for that kimd of movie Hell Hath no Fury delivers a fine actioner that is tightly plotted (unlike earlier Jesse V Johnson movies) fine acting (Louis Mandylor has grown on me since seeing his pairing with Scott Adkins in Debt Collector and it is always a joy to watch Daniel Bernhardt in an actual role and not just an appearance where he gets his ass kicked by some Hollywood pretty boy/girl or SNL comedians, the rest of the cast was fine) and loads of action inspired by the likes of Sam Peckinpah.
Now as much as I liked JVJ's other films the shootouts weren't exactly his strongest aspect. Here he kind of makes an improvement in that department but still it is no John Woo or Johnnie To however it's always great to see those juicy ass squibs again. Hollywood please listen to action fans worldwide for once, we demand to bring back the juicy squibs! CG blood is a crime against cinema.
Overall decent DTV action flick, you would totally enjoy this if you go into it not expecting to get your mimd blown and definetly do not believe the negative ratings 3.7/10 is the kind of score I'd give to those half assed excuses of movies that Seagal churns out every once in a while, this is no where near as bad as that even if you ended up dislilikg it.
