Its a bloody movie nearly from the start, a vengance- like kidnapping,extortion and torture,lots of beating and screamcrying.then another one bites the dust as number one victim gets free,but is stupid enough to not run(as i wouldve)then comes the third and fourth guy,like the trolls in the ash-lad fairytails.lots of talk, really angry men,and so on, though fairytails have a happy ending this film doesnot,thereb is a winner,but its not the good guy.there are also some females involved,but they all hate the guys. its a film about money,sex,hate,cells , pc's and gravedigging. its a cheap production,so dont expect much, the editing are like showing the whole world war 2 in 5 minutes ,very sparse and few locations.the music are as taken out of a UFO-movie form the early 50*s i give 3 stars for stamina,''story''and the acting actually....

I never thought 1 1/2 hours could seem so endless. I'm no prude but the constant F bombs got tiresome. If you enjoy a movie set in one location, mediocre acting, blood and gore with seemingly endless torture, this might be the movie for you

Probably the least enjoyable film of this genre I've ever had to endure. The lead character is such an annoying creep, and the way he acts and talks while being beaten/tortured defies reason. Truly one of the worst written and ineptly directed load of manure ever put on screen. Dialogue? Laughable. Acting? Awful. It was so ridiculous I thought that if I started viewing it as a parody of more competently made films I might extract some enjoyment out of it. But no, it failed pathetically. Goes nowhere. Accomplished nothing. There's far better films out there along these lines that won't make you want to smash your own television set. I don't understand why a smug and completely useless person as a main character is put in the position to act as the victim to avenge wrongs done to HIM. It's inconceivable. Never has a film made so little sense and gone out of it's way to make you detest every character involved. It's F this and F you and he calls everyone Buddy for some reason. And the overuse of the word Baby is beyond stupid. If a writer can't come up with any more original word than that just give it up and try another career. I love sick torture movies when done with brains and ingenuity, not with a hokey made for TV vibe that makes you cringe with every scene. And if you're hoping for some sort of satisfaction with a good ending with a twist you will be sadly disappointed. I can't say enough bad things about this lousy mess. There's more tension in an episode of The Simpsons.

Agenda: Payback is a joy to watch, especially if you're a fan of revenge thrillers. Sean Patrick Flanery's Steve Walsh is a witty film producer who has rubbed one too many people the wrong way. He's kidnapped and beaten by Eric Belfour's Peter, who is offering people an opportunity to exact torturous revenge on Steve for money. Based on the premise, one could expect it to be a strong meditation on anger begetting anger, but Agenda: Payback is much more. Between the action-packed story, witty dialogue, innovative editing, and powerful performance by Flanery, Agenda: Payback is a fun watch for anyone looking for an hour-and-a-half of high-octane thrills.

Agenda: Payback is about a writer who kidnaps a businessman who ruined his life. Agenda: Payback is a violent and brutal thriller with a very unique premise. The film takes place almost entirely in one location which makes it feel very claustrophobic and real. The film kept me invested with its intense scenes and complexity. Every character has both good and bad aspects to their personality and motivations which makes the film very complex. I also liked how the film used music to increase the tension. The film is also very satisfying because you get to see a horrible person getting what they deserve. Agenda Payback is a suspenseful film that will keep you invested until the very end and I strongly recommend it.

Steve Walsh (Sean Patrick Flanery) sets up deals that all seem to go south. His investors lose everything and he gets rich. He also cheats on his wife. A lot a people want a piece of him. Peter Farrell (Eric Balfour) one of the victims sets things up as the rest of the film is a guy tied to a chair in a basement getting beat up and tortured. And just when you think the film is going to change gears, we go back to a guy tied to said chair getting beat up and tortured....And just when you think the film is going to change gears, we go back to a guy tied to said chair getting beat up and tortured. They could have used some effective flashbacks to break up all the basement scenes. Guide: F-word. Opening sex and nudity.
