From cockfighting rings and train yards, to basements and barns across South America, modern-day warriors put on bulletproof vests and duel one another in underground gunfights to gain riches and respect. It's known only as the Game and Zorringer (Mickey Rourke - Iron Man 2) is its elusive champion. Our hero, John (Ryan Kwanten - True Blood), is looking for the ultimate duel with Zorringer while Colt (Freida Pinto - Rise of the Planet of the Apes) is seeking revenge for the death of her brother. The two gunslingers travel from one shootout to another on a dangerous journey of love, violence and clandestine battles. (101 Films)

So if you don't expect anything at all, you end up getting a pretty original romance, which takes place based on some very special matches. These are classic duels, except that when they shoot, they aim at the chest, where the duellers wear bulletproof vests. Of course, things can go really wrong, and it can get pretty messed up. Perhaps it's a pity that this principle wasn't utilized more and the focus was on relationships. It could have produced an even better drama.
