Road Of No Return (2009) 6/10

Starring : Michael Madsen, David Carradine, Michael Blain-Rozgay, Ernest Anthony, Shane Woodson, Jose Andrews
Director : Parviz Saghizadeh
Running Time : 91 mins

Four hit men, known to each other as The Foreigner (Blain-Rozgay), The Indian (Andrews), Blacky (Anthony) and Whitey (Woodson), are hired to try and prevent America’s growing drug problem by killing some known drug traffickers, but when they rescue an orphaned child from the drug dealers they’ve been sent to kill, their bosses decide they could compromise the mission and order the four men to be killed.

By giving the characters typically racist names, this really brings out the xenophobic ideals of the four hit men involved. Thankfully they manage to fight against the odds and work together, as well as finding out things about themselves that they otherwise would never have known. The script is a little bit stunted, which is a nice way of saying it is badly written, and some of the acting is abysmal, but fans of the genre might find something redeeming about this pretty mediocre thriller.
