How bad is it? Overly complicated, implausible sexploitation thriller. Meh.
Should you see it? No. Nothing new or interesting here.
“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds."

Greed (1999/2006)
aka Axe

I think most people end up seeing this film, as I did, by accident, because of the plethora of films entitled "Greed" and "Axe," all of which are probably better than this one. Two women, after doing some climbing (and looking quite fetching, rather than tired and dirty), steal money from a biker gang. A dirt biker gang. They end up in an inn and the proprietors also are now after them for the money. Then there's a bar, with a shoot-out, and the bar people are after them, too. Then they throw in a prison escapee with an axe that's harder to kill than Jason Voorhees or Michael Meyers. There's chase scenes and fight scenes and a lot of toplessness, but nothing you haven't seen before.
