Four men...outlaws thrown together by fate...share a fantastic adventure and risk the only thing they have left to lose.

Four men from different parts of the globe, all hiding from their pasts in the same remote South American town, agree to risk their lives transporting several cases of dynamite (which is so old that it is dripping unstable nitroglycerin) across dangerous jungle terrain.

7/10

Spit on the floor, take off your warrior boots and crack open a can of lager. This is the manliest film ever. However, it is not just a banal acton movie, it has a gripping story and an intimate jungle atmosphere. 7/10
