Blackjack

A former Marine turned mercenary, Jack (Dolph Lundgren), takes on a high-stakes job protecting a supermodel from a deadly assassin. The job quickly spirals out of control when the assassin proves to be incredibly resourceful and relentless, forcing Jack to use all his combat skills to survive and protect his client. As the body count rises, Jack finds himself in a desperate race against time to uncover the motive behind the assassination attempts before he becomes the next victim.

Blackjack was largely panned by critics, who found its plot predictable and its action sequences uninspired. While Dolph Lundgren's performance was noted, it wasn't enough to elevate the film above its formulaic execution. Audience reception was similarly lukewarm, with many considering it a forgettable entry in the action genre.

• Lacks originality and compelling action.
• Dolph Lundgren's efforts are overshadowed by a weak script.
• A generic action flick with little to offer.

Google audience: Google users found the film to be a predictable and unexciting action movie. While some appreciated Lundgren's presence, many felt the plot was cliché and the action sequences lacked creativity.

Blackjack was originally intended for a theatrical release but was instead released direct-to-video in most markets.
