Theatrical Trailer
Description of A Man Apart:
Buffed-up action star Vin Diesel plays a reckless DEA agent in A Man Apart, which aspires to merge big-budget action fare with a grittier, The French Connection-style procedural drama. When his wife is murdered by a mysterious drug lord called Diablo, Sean Vetter (Diesel) loses his moral bearings and risks the lives of his fellow agents in a quest for revenge. A Man Apart tries to give Diesel the opportunity to demonstrate a greater emotional range, but it's a mess; the supposedly tender scenes are generic and flat, while the action scenes are utterly incomprehensible. Much of the time it's unclear who's a cop and who's a thug, so when people get shot--and a lot of people get shot--it just becomes a bland wash of blood and bullets. --Bret Fetzer
A Man Apart Reviews:
A Man Apart 
2009-09-14 - This movie is by far the best that Vin has ever been in. His character makes you agree with his way of thinking. Great movie.
Solid movie. 
2009-09-13 - Just watched A Man Apart last night. I'm an average movie fan tending toward Sci-fi, Action, Fantasy. I loved Pitch Black and hated The Spirit. So, I would have to say this movie is solid, fun action. I thought the acting was good, the story was straight forward without any real plot twists to speak of,but I was never bored. When it was over I was glad I'd watched it, and didn't feel like I wanted my money back. I'm not sure why the haters don't like this movie. What were you expecting, Shakespeare? If you are a big Vin Diesel fan like me, you;ll like this one!

2009-04-14 - I realy enjoyed this movie. It has lots of action to keep you going and you get to know the characters well enough to care about them. Vin Diesal did a great job with expressing a range of emotions with his facial expressions....
A Man Apart
2009-03-23 - I love the movie and I recieved it with in a few days of buying it. No problems at all. I would buy again from this seller.
Pretty Good
2009-03-17 - This was pretty good, lots of action, some sexy scenes, typical Vin Diesel. I think it was a little long. And although it is the point of the story, I found it somewhat disturbing that the main character couldn't control his rage even to the point of getting a lot of innocent bystanders killed in a botched undercover operation. This is not typical of other heroes who have some restraint. The revenge aspect was tolerable because we did find ourselves attached to the cute wife who got murdered and because the agony of the grieving husband was well played. The movie might have been a little overly stereotypical of Hispanics, but a lot of movies are like that. Overall, I think it was interesting.
