I don't want to be mean spirited here, and I apologize for raining on you parade, crusher, but given that it's a Uwe Boll film, don't expect much.
In fact, I recently read some interesting comments that suggested that Boll's financial backing comes from wealthy Europeans who need to throw some money away to get tax breaks, and aren't intested in the films themselves. That was one of the more realistic explanations I read, although some were more sinister, implying money laundering, which, frankly, I would think to be highly unlikely.
Still, his track record so far isn't inspiring: House of the Dead and Alone in the Dark. Currently he's doing a string of video game movies, presumably because they don't require much in the way of plot, etc.
