Very well executed
Good concept, poorly executed.
The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.
noth shown as ex-CIA agent who run away from Jakarta as he investigate narcotics drug dealers in south east Asia. he live hidden life back in new york. he has always dreams of suzee who she get killed in car accident in Jakarta during drug mafia gun shootout, but he believes that she is not killed it is drama. one day again he thrown back in Jakarta forcefully by CIA again. with his old partners he again start his work to find her & he finds her at last. I had seen this movie on Laser Disc. the producers are Indian & Indian origins. shows real life séances, rainy season, clubs, small lanes, houses in Jakarta. colorful enjoyable movie. good car, human chasing, good action scenes, story plot is some how weak. but over all time pass movie
I was unable to sleep tonight, so I went to do some work on my computer. I turned on the tv and started searching for something to fill my ears while my mind worked. Apparently, I did both.Chris sports a beard in parts of this one, which make him super sexy. There are also shots of him making love, and MAN! does he have an amazing body. =)I first learned about Chris from Sex and the City, and loved him ever since. I wait for reruns of Law & Order, or S&tC.There are some decent car chases in this one, but I'm buying it for him.I love Mr. Big- Nicole
An interesting story on an apparently limited budget. Though filmed in an exotic local, the film was riddled with bad cuts. For example, a character is bare headed during a struggle and then appears with a hat a split second later. However, as B-movies go it was better than most. Though it features a token, drop-dead gorgeous femme fatale (Sue Francis Pai), she had an intelligent role and was actually one of the better actors in the film. If you want an entertaining but not mentally taxing action-adventure flick, this is it.
This is a hard movie to find, but if you are a Christopher Noth fan-atic and can rent or purchase it, go for it! It's a pretty straight-forward action flick with some fun touches such as the car chase through the market, and Chris looks gorgeous, of course. So does the scenery around Jakarta. Worth seeing.
