Road of No Return

David Carradine (Kill Bill, Kung Fu) and Michael Madsen (Kill Bill, Reservoir Dogs) team up once again in this story of drugs, murder, kidnapping and betrayal. When Carradine and Madsen Hire four hit men to do their evil-doing, they encounter a number of unexpected obstacles which, in turn, leads the hit men down a whole new path of morality and questioning of their pasts. Sooner or later, it is revealed that Carradine and Madsen are not as they seem and upon discovery, causes the hit men to retaliate.
The Director/Writer of this movie obviously idolized Tarantino because the storyline and filming mimic Reservoir Dogs. I think it was definitely done this way on purpose because Madsen probably wouldnt have done the role if it wasn't....then again, he hasn't been cast in TOO many movies lately..... The two main characters (Carradine and Madsen) were definitely given the two best roles and the other actors were blatantly inexperienced. Madsen plays his classic character similar to that of Kill Bill and Reservoir Dogs and so does Carradine. The anecdotes and stories told by the two make the movie worthwhile.
