I got only forty minutes into the movie before turning it off. I couldn't take the bad acting, the lame action, not to mention the constant sexual jokes that weren't even funny. I was hoping since Mark Dacascos and Danny Trejo were in the movie, it might just be ok, and the trailer honestly didn't look too bad...well, I found out that you can't always trust movie trailers, especially with low budget production movies such as this one.

This is a money laundry "movie making" project of Nevsky and his thug team, that do not mind filming predictably horrible "Hollywood Blockbusters" as Nevsky loves to name his lame "masterpieces". A talentless narcissistic anabolic user wants to look not less than Arnold and Sylvester, while not really understanding what he actually is. If you want to ruin a couple of hours of your precious life and tease your brain on dumb and extreme visuals, along with laughably bad acting of Nevsky and his circus group, then get to see at least a couple of his "movies", and regret about that decision later on. Guaranteed.

12 minutes in and i decided this wasn't the movie for me. which is a shame, as there are a few recognisable faces in the cast, and i'm sure they can do much better than this...i can only imagine they were desperate for the money?
two is a generous score

There are some pretty decent actors in this with a potentially good story. All wasted with a terrible script with little action or comedy full of mugging for the camera instead of any attempt at performing. Terrible!

Lame, talentless, pointless, worthless. Those four words will do. The most awful "movie" we have seen in 2018. Nevsky is historically the worst actor of the planet. How he manages that, is beyond anyone's understanding.

OMG, this is one of the worst movies ever made and that is saying A LOT!
Mediocre cast, unbelievably stupid script. Its amazing that ANYONE would actually write those words into a script.
One awful racial and sexual stereotype after another.
Disgusting!
Disgusting!

The U. S. Secretary of State is in Moscow for a negotiation. After a failed attack on his helicopter, his granddaughter runs away with kidnappers in pursuit. Agents of the CIA and Russian Secret Service FSB must work together after assuming that she has been kidnapped.
I assume this to be a Russian production paid by some Russian big wig. They've recruited a whole bunch of Hollywood B-list actors. You know it's bad when it includes Tom Arnold. It's bad writing in a bad B-movie. The heavy accents are annoying. Worst of all are the bad attempts at comedy. It's horrible writing with awkwardly broad silliness. I have to question the scriptwriter whose claim to fame seems to be Rush Hour. I do appreciate that this has some real car action even if some of it looks badly done. At least, they wrecked a few cars. Overall, it's stupid and badly written. Every time the words "Baby Bear" came up, I cringed. It's all stupid.

The worst interpretations of actors who, a few years ago, seemed to know how to play.
A sad scenario, a sad director, well-known actors who seem worse than amateurs.
Shy.

After reading the reviews here, I just had to see it for myself.
I went in with expecting the worst movie ever, but don't really agree with the other reviewers.
It's a very entertaining movie. Yes it stars c-rate actors and the acting isn't great, nor is the story (but hell, most blockbusters have even worse generic stories).
If you expect a good big budget action movie, yep, then you should just pass this on. But this movie is better than most of Steven Seagall's latest movies.
But again, don't expect anything, and certainly nothing serious.

Currently, "Maximum Impact" has an overall score of 2.1 on IMDB....a truly horrible score. This could easily mean the film will make IMDB's infamous Bottom 100 List....and perhaps it will once it receives the minimum number of votes needed for inclusion.
The film is very unusual in that it appears to be a Russian-American joint effort. But the filmmakers obviously didn't have a lot of clout or money, and so the 'stars' in the film are a lot of C-list Americans as well as newcomers who are even worse. So, if you are a die-hard fan of Danny Trejo, Tom Arnold or Eric Roberts, you might want to watch it...but I couldn't recommend it because of everything else about the film. And, of the three, Arnold clearly has the worst written character.
The story involves a weird criminal/terrorist played by Mark Dacascos (the 'Chairman' on the "Iron Chef America" series). He wants to provoke a world war by assassinating the US Secretary of State (Roberts) as well as kidnapping the Secretary's REALLY annoying granddaughter. So, it's up to the American and Russian secret police to stop the baddies.
In addition to poor acting, the script is filled with incredibly bad dialog and ridiculous characters. There's really not much good I can say about it other than its nice location shoots. This and some polish mean that I cannot really give the film a 1...though 2 seems reasonable and well earned.

WOW! A bunch of bad reviews... fortunately I didn't care as a lot of people are just envious and they think that acting is easy, like sitting their asses on the chair and writing idiotic reviews because of their frustration to not to be someone. They are real actors and probably rich and you're just losers who think to be important writing useless pathetic reviews. You'll never do anything in your life, so go on writing bad reviews, because it's the only thing you can do. You'll never have a chance to act and become famous like these actors that you despise so much. Shame to all of you! Grow up!
Anyway, let's talk about this movie, brilliant! I really had a lot of fun, I absolutely liked it, not an Oscar movie, pure entertainment for almost a couple of hours. All the actors were very good and there are many important and famous actors. I'm not going to talk about the plot, but the screenplay was OK and the director did a good job. It's important to take this movie as it is, without big expectations. If you do that, then you'll enjoy it, otherwise you can get disappointed. Many of the actors are really famous martial artists and of course you have to like the genre. It's a really decent action movie imbued with a little humor, some fun and a good car chasing.

Horrible !!! But I will enjoy any movie with Danny Trejo 😉😉
Also see that Bai Ling was in this - so beautiful 😍
I was somewhat entertaining, but it's no "Machete"
