Editorial Review:
Buffed-up action star Vin Diesel plays a reckless DEA agent in A Man Apart, which aspires to merge big-budget action fare with a grittier, The French Connection-style procedural drama. When his wife is murdered by a mysterious drug lord called Diablo, Sean Vetter (Diesel) loses his moral bearings and risks the lives of his fellow agents in a quest for revenge. A Man Apart tries to give Diesel the opportunity to demonstrate a greater emotional range, but it's a mess; the supposedly tender scenes are generic and flat, while the action scenes are utterly incomprehensible. Much of the time it's unclear who's a cop and who's a thug, so when people get shot--and a lot of people get shot--it just becomes a bland wash of blood and bullets. --Bret Fetzer

Rating:  - good movie
i saw it on tv last nite
and it was a pretty good movie i didnt even no it existed but its good

Rating:  - Totally focused
A good example of someone who doesn't let an unjust act slip through the cracks. He's unstopable in his drive to succeed.
Rating:  - A Virtual Screaming Black Hole of Utter Stupidity
Easily the most stupid movie ever allowed to go into production. I thought XXX was stupid, but Vin Diesel went even stupider with this crock of bull. Even Superman III with Richard Pryor had more redeeming value than this movie and believe you me, that movie was total garbage. In order to submit this review, I was FORCED to give it one star. Too bad you can't give a movie NO STARS. I think its been a while since Vin Diesel came out with anything new; must be a reason for that...
Rating: - Well Concieved Man
I wasn't sure what to expect from this as I got it in a three movie Diesel set. I hadn't seen it previously, but I must say I was pleasantly surprised. One review did a good job of pointing out this is a style like "French Connection", but I think it is crossed with something like "S.W.A.T.". Diesel is good as former gangbanger turned DEA agent. The movie makes twists and turns that may fool you as to who is responsible for the death of his wife. Fans of Steven Seagal or Lesley Snipes movies will ... Read More
Rating: - Diesel At His Best - Just Plain Ruthless
This is one movie that does not hold back - the story of a DEA agent avenging his wife's death and his assault on the cartel responsible for her death. To use the term "ruthless abandon" to describe Diesel's character and his actions is an understatement here and that is what makes this movie so great - quite similar to Denzel Washinton's character in Man On Fire. If you like it rough and ruthless this is definitely one for you!
