Was it shown before or not ?
EDIT : the Imdb page already announces a 96mn running time. Ain't it a little too soon to know that ?

Here is a more detailed plot/synopsis (with minor spoilers if you don't want to know anything before you see the film):
New Jersey detective, Nick Cassidy (Dolph Lundgren) heads to Bangkok where he teams up with Thai detective, Tony Vitayakui (Tony Jaa) to hunt down Viktor Dragovic (Ron Perlman) and destroy his human trafficking network. Nick had inadvertently killed Dragovic's son in a sting operation on the New Jersey docks, and Dragovic responded by attempting to kill Nick and his family. Nick miraculously survived the brutal attack, but his wife and daughter were killed. With nothing but vengeance to live for, Nick and Tony traverse their way through the Bangkok underworld in search of the elusive Dragovic. Meanwhile, FBI Agent Eddie Reed (Michael Jai White) is sent in to bring Nick home. But as the crossfire ensues, Nick has to determine who his true allies are.

Thanks to that synopsis, I'm glad that MJW's role isn't made obvious now and he could still be either a hero or a villain or an ambiguous combination. I honestly thought the Facebook bozos spoiled a major twist for a while.

The movie was just completed so it's not impossible if it was updated by someone from the production.

It has already been submitted to the MPAA and it's been
"Rated R for strong violence throughout, disturbing sexual content, nudity, drug use and language."

[Tom]

My kinda movie! ha ha

[dude hallenbeck]

Great to hear it's complete. It's been a long time coming.

[bomaz]

Yes indeed. They took time, and it's reassuring (when BoR rating happened a mere two month after the end of photography if i remember right). We just have to wait for a first trailer (around november / december) and the announcement of a music composer (yes, I'm a monomaniac pain in the arse ^^) and we'll be close to the release (they want to take advantage of the release of F&F7, is that it ?)

[Jox]

Any chance we'll be seeing a new trailer with dialogue included anytime soon ?

Trailer will be posted later today (PM in Europe, AM in US) on FB.

Trailer is up now on Tony's FB page.

Music composed by Jacob Groth (MILLENNIUM, DEAD MAN DOWN) like D had mentioned it could be.

Good choice for composer. I loved his work on Dragon Tattoo. I'll have to check out Dead Man Down too.

It's so refreshing to see a Dolph trailer where 1: it looks like everyone involved gave a shit about the production, 2: the production itself looks borderline cinema worthy and 3: has a tonne of decent looking action in it. Most hyped I've been to see a Dolph film since Command Performance.

[Dida]

This really looks great! Great to see Dolph shine in a decent movie again!

[bomaz]

It's not the perfect trailer, but the movie itself looks impressive. Can't wait !
And great news for the composer. I don't know his work, but trust Dolph in his choice (and everytime he has work with european comoser has been great).

[viendammage]

Impressed and excited, should be a kick ass action flick with a stellar cast!
