This is a 2006 story about the revenge taken by a battered girlfriend on a badass Irish gangster. The film starts on a humorous note, with the girlfriend (Milla Jovovich) talking about Big Al's huge dick. We soon learn that Al is a genuinely nasty person. He makes a living selling guns when he's not stealing and fencing merchandise. He is jealous, bigoted, and God knows what else.

Milla helps him in the business, but he thinks she was being too friendly to a Puerto Rican, and beats her up. The beating is very long and intense, make deliberately so by first-time director Gary Lennon to make sure could be no sympathy for Al (Angus MacFadyen).

Three people want to get Milla in bed and are more than happy to help Milla get her revenge by removing Al from the picture.

This film has not seen a release in an English speaking country, but I thought the entire cast did an excellent job, and had this been a third film by a director rather than a first one, I feel sure it would have had a theatrical release. The plot outline is great, although some of the execution could have been better. I know why the beating scene had to be brutal, for example, but I thought it was way over-done.

• There are no reviews in English.
• IMDb readers say 5.9.
• This is a brutal crime drama/revenge film, and is probably a C, especially given nudity and a fine performance from Milla Jovovich.

It is finally available on a Region 1 DVD, and is ready to ship now to get to you by the street date
