Here's D2 album version (in Bulgarian) of their song '6'
(that was featured as 'Girl' for the English version featured in the movie ; first song during the CMF rehearsal)

And here is some behind the scenes from the last day that I was on the set (not posted on the CP website)

So, does the movie succeed? Admirably, is the answer. The script is well constructed and plotted and some of the dialogue genuinely sparkles. The pacing is excellent, giving enough time to show the characters and tell the developing story before the action kicks in and when it does, it is fast paced and unremitting. Joe himself is an interesting, character as he has no agenda, no revenge motive, just wants to keep his head down and keep out of trouble, giving him some great character moments when he reluctantly takes up his new role. Direction is tight and atmospheric, giving the film a sense of claustrophobia which heightens the tension of the action scenes, all of which are executed superbly, with a real sense that the editor knew what he was doing and did it with style. This is one of those rare movies that delivers far more than it promises and vindicates Lundgren’s decision to write, direct and star in the movie. Highly recommended, this is a seriously good action film, well worth watching!

I have a dumb question : is there a way to figure out how much movies like Command Performance, Icarus or The Mechanik did on dvd selling/ renting ? websites like "the numbers" or such doesn't have this kind of infos.

[Jox]

It's a good question actually. I don't know why, unlike theatrical box office figures which are released publicly, DTV rentals and sales seem like a big secret that companies don't like to reveal and often even directors and actors have no idea how much their movie made... Somehow with the number of IMDB votes and YouTube trailer views, I get the feeling that ICARUS was more successful than CP, probably because it was released closer to THE EXPENDABLES (it was after in the US for instance) ; I don't know though because you also have to take into account piracy (ex: UNDISPUTED 3 did poorly because mot people downloaded it, according to Scott Adkins and Isaac Florentine, which reduces chances to see UD4)

P.S. I just looked at IMDB and it seems she's uncredited... Guess "How I met your mother" and HONEY 2 didn't help her career that much.
