3.0 out of 5 stars Trashy but fun, May 4, 2004

By	S. Naimpally "avid music and movie fan" (Dallas, TX USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Stereotypical spy/action movie directed by James Glickenhouse, a protege of Peckinpah. Tangerine Dream fans will want to view this as much of the TD soundtrack was actually recycled for the soundtrack for Thief.

Ken Wahl starred in this movie before he became famous in the TV series Wiseguy. The plot and action are not particularly original but its still fun to sit back and watch and the music, if you are a TD fan, provides significant compensation. Break out the popcorn and enjoy!

2.0 out of 5 stars A good Saturday afternoon flick, November 28, 2001

By	John Fenech (Sydney, NSW Australia) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I saw this movies many years ago, and was reading a novel on a mid-east terrorist plot and automatically know where the guy lifted it from, so when I found out that I could get the movie I bought it!

4.0 out of 5 stars Better Than The Critics Say, June 23, 2000

By A Customer

Despite the poor critical reviews, I found this to be a very good movie. It had action, a storyline, and intrigue - a rare combination. It also had a satisfying ending - something I find VERY rare! Lastly anyone who is a fan of cold-war type movies should enjoy this.
