This film made me laugh at the wrong times. It was hard to watch because almost every scene had one element or more that made no sense whatsoever and removed me from watching the film. One major problem I had was that I didn't understand why the Mexicans who were guarding the meth lab didn't turn on the bad guys. There was only the two, Peter and Vance, so the Mexicans outnumbered them. They were willing to signal Jose when the boss was coming so they were obviously sympathetic to their hermanos. It would have been so easy. I could go on, but I don't think a review should have more thought put into than a film's script.
The one, and only, positive for the film is that the producers are obviously very talented to have raised all the money they needed for the project beforehand. If they raised any money by showing scenes from the film, then these guys could sell ice to Eskimos. Plus, they got Bruce Springsteen to donate the song Sinola Cowboys to The Gatekeeper in perpetuity. The Boss wouldn't let his music be used in The Mask, the movie about the kid with the giant head starring Eric Stoltz, but somehow this film met with his approval?! Keep an eye out for Joseph Hogan and Connie Dolph. They obviously know people and are going places.
