    4.0 out of 5 stars Underrated
    Reviewed in the United States on September 15, 2012

    One in the Chamber is an underrated action-thriller by director William Kaufman. Kaufman is one of a handful of DTV directors to really watch. (The others being Isaac Florentine, Roel Reine, and John Hyams.). Kaufman's action scenes
    are always handled carefully, not sloppily, and with a definite, obvious respect for the days when audiences were presented with hand to hand fight scenes that were like mini martial arts demonstrations rather than quickly cut illusions of combat. Kaufman really seems to have respect for the genre. It seems that these days, with very few exceptions, the place to find a good action movie is in the DTV market and Kaufman is definitely one of the directors to watch. Of course, having Dolph Lundgren give one of his more memorable performances in recent years helps a bit too. Let's hope this film is successful enough to call for a sequel.

    I rent from Amazon weekly. As I was scanning I saw at 2012 thriller starring Cuba Gooding, Jr & Dolph Lundrgren & figured, how bad could it be? We live in a "faster" world now. Movies longer than 2 hours stretch our attention span. We want to be enthralled. We want to try & guess what will happen next. "One In The Chamber" gave me all I wanted & more. I wasn't looking for Oscar Winning performances: I wanted to be entertained for 90 minutes. "One in the Chamber" delivers, both with humor & intrigue. If you appreciate guns, you will see some of the latest & best weapons the armed forces are using now, as well as the "fun" sequences that make these thrillers worth the low price. So? Low on cash? Bored? Kids on your nerves? Rent "One in the Chamber"! It delivers what you want & beats $10-$14 at the theatre, popcorn, & soda.

    5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT !!

    I would encourage anyone to upgrade their older VHS or DVD movies to at least Bluray 2D quality (3D for those who have 3D grade TV’s) as the quality of the picture is 100% better then VHS tapes and nearly 50% better then DVD's. The sound quality has been improved and upgraded as well. Most Blu-ray’s have many more features that can be viewed as well which make for a much fuller movie experience too! Oh and just so you know, even if you don't own a Bluray movie you should go buy an on sale Bluray player. Why? Because a Bluray player scans the disk many more times than just a standard DVD player, that it will even make your older DVD movies look much better. That is, as long as you have a flat screen type of TV that was purchased in the last five years. Good luck and go get some!

    4.0 out of 5 stars The Underboss needed more screen time.
    Reviewed in the United States on August 24, 2012

    I was prepared to casually enjoy this film. It lived up to my expectations. However, the Underboss, "Damien?" was the star of the show if you ask me. I'd like to see this actor in more movies. Additionally, the city and scenery was believable.

    Finally, I got a real kick out of Dolph's character and thought he did a fine job. Did you catch the boots he had on in the beginning? Hysterical.

    It was a standard Cuba performance. He needs to play a part that stretches him.

    If you are looking for perfect, look elsewhere. But a passable plot and decent execution make this watchable but it might be wise to wait til it drop's in price for a rental.

    3.0 out of 5 stars See it only for Dolph!
    Reviewed in the United States on February 11, 2013

    This movie was just average and I dont buy Cuba as an assassin either. But Dolph was fun to watch, this was one of his best roles but not as fun and over the top as his character in Universal Soldier, but still fun. Believe it or not I actually would like to see a sequel to this movie (Once you get to the end youll see what Im talking about). Other than Dolph, no other reason to see this film.

    I love Dolph Lundgren and Cuba Gooding. Both in one movie was something I did not want to miss. I did not expect this movie to be nearly as good as it is. The story line kept you guessing and it was very entertaining. Lots of action just made it better. I am delighted to add it to my collection of action movies.

    4.0 out of 5 stars Praga insaguinata
    Reviewed in Italy on October 14, 2016
    Verified Purchase
    Valido film d'azione senza buoni, solo cattivi e altri un pò meno cattivi, ambientato tra la malavita dell'est a Praga: la tensione si mantiene alta e c'è anche un pizzico di humour nero garantito da un Lundgren che è descritto da uno dei malavitosi come un "Frank Sinatra sotto steroidi". Quello che lascia perplessi è come Gooding Jr sia passato da un Oscar per Jerry Maguire a girare b-movie nell'Est Europa...

    I have re-watched this a few times now and it is fast becoming a favourite. I'm a big Dolph Lundgren fan and he happily chews up the scenery here in classic Dolph style while still showing he can roll with the young kids. Cuba Gooding Jr. does an admirable job as an action star, giving some depth to a one dimensional cookie cutter type loner. He holds his own on the action as well. I was pleasantly surprised and have since started watching more films directed by William Kaufman. Fun movies + low budgets = great mindless entertainment.

    You'd think because this is a straight to DVD release, that it automatically is a lower class movie, but Cuba Gooding is still a very good actor, and can help carry a film -- which he did well at in this film.

    I actually thought the setting and directorial style was well done for a little known movie such as this.
    It has all the elements of cheese that a person would want, as well as witty dialogue and gun-driven action.
