One of biggest examples of stunt casting you'll ever see. Aside from that, 'Precious Cargo' is poor in almost every area.
Mark-Paul Gosselaar is very much the lead actor, Bruce Willis barely features at all; and when he does, it seems he didn't give a toss about this production - I'm not usually one to say an actor is supposedly phoning it in, but Willis in this... oof. Gosselaar, for his part, is average. As are the rest of the cast, yet I kinda liked Jenna B. Kelly's Logan.
This attempts action, comedy and romance - none of which pay off unfortunately. The action is OK, though the comedy is extremely forced but not helped by lame dialogue. As for the love story, there is far too much - to quote the film itself - "sappy shit" in this. 100% action was needed.
I will say I appreciate that there is at least a male and a female character, both appear a large amount, that don't end up getting together, instead remaining friends. That's unusual with this sorta film. The score is actually alright, too. It also, unexpectedly, includes a blooper reel in the end credits.
Improved writing and acting could've made this work, if only on a minorly serviceable level.
only reason i started watching this sh!t was bruce willis :/ i have learned my lesson
can't watch his sorry ass anymore
Bruce Willis looks like he wants to hang himself.
Badly plotted action pic is boring and dated. The kind of film you could have picked up in your local video store in the 90's, though you would have been disappointed even then.
I'm sorry, I'm rating the movie "Bad" 3/10 based just on the first 18 minutes. I couldn't continue watching this. It looks like the most amatur story with all the lamest moves there is.
Simply very "American" bad movie. Watch it only if you love simple action movies. Otherwise avoid even downloading this.
The only thing more frustrating than every predictable detail of this boring piece of filmmaking is the unbelievable volume of WTF in the screenplay. From the swimsuit model who can't act her age to Mark-Paul Harry Gosselaar, the star of Saved by the Bell (!?), who does not have chops strong enough to carry an action movie, not even Bruce Willis can add star power to this disaster. Ugh, I'm going to stop commenting now because I refuse to waste any more time on this film.
Can someone give better scripts to Bruce and Nicolas? Such amazing actors. Such crazy movies.

They clearly don't have a large budget however Max Adams does show flair in spite of the shortcomings of production; I've watched a lot of the el cheapo "we have Bruce Willis for one day" action films and this by far the most competent.
Looks like Mr Adams is on script duties for Expendables 4 so we'll see how that fairs when the budget restrictions lifted with more established actors. Otherwise a fine way to pass 80 odd minutes (when you skip credits both side) on a lazy Sunday afternoon.
