Summary: Stunt-Filled Emotional Void
Bruce Law does a bang up job with the stunts in his directorial debut "Extreme Crisis." His name is plastered all over the place as director and stunt coordinator. The movie is filled with wall-to-wall action, but the actors are left hanging without any character development. Since the characters are so sketchy, the audience doesn't have enough emotional involvement with the film to really care about what happens. There is no tension or build up, which leaves the stunts feeling sterile and unengaging, although well-executed.

Without any real characters to focus on, we are left with a film that is a hollow and mindless excuse for one action scene after another.
