Good , But It Is Overrated By Some
Boring, long, and too preachy.
A waste of 90 minutes of my life
A Major Disappointment
I'm a huge Treat Williams fan but I have to say... this movie sucked. The acting really wasn't bad, I don't blame the actors at all. But all in all the summary leads you to believe that Treat Williams is the hero and he gets involved like no other when in all reality, it's almost shot like there's 5 different stories going on at the same time. It was really hard to enjoy this, a couple of the jokes were pretty good and you can enjoy SOME of the dialogue but for the most part.. this movie was a bit of a joke. If it had been edited much better and perhaps if there was a bit more to the relationship between Agent Jason and Nadia it COULD have passed for an okay movie. Some of the scenes look like they were ripped off some other movie too.. not pleased.
1st watched 4/20/2002 - 2 out of 10(Dir-Jay Andrews): Bizarre, idiotic story-line is the first problem with this movie. I hate it when the box description on a video is totally wrong. It states that a chemical is being carried on a plane that crashes into a mountain and causes havoc, the Blockbuster description says it's carrying the world's deadliest explosives. Guess what, both are wrong. What is being carried on the plane is a scientific devise invented back in the early 1900's that basically takes a person's thoughts to create atomic-like destruction. Now beginning with that, can you really make a good movie?? Treat Williams tries to add humor to an otherwise way too serious treatment of a silly story. We get to see some old time TV stars make a little money, but other than that what a waste of my time & money(if you paid to rent this film - mine happened to be a freebie, but what a waste of a freebie). Oh well, the next one has got to be better than this loser.
If it's variety you're after in an action flick, this is the movie for you. We've got the CIA; avalanches; diabetic Dads; gullible train conductors; Christmas parades; ludicrous doomsday devices.Exploding helicopters, exploding trucks, exploding airplanes, exploding cars, and exploding bicycles. (Okay, not bicycles, but only because the producer had already filled the movie's quota of exploding transportation.)White mountain goats; beautifully appointed vacation houses with working phones out in the middle of nowhere; internet rumors.And Bongo the Bear.We also have CIA agent Treat Williams merrily wisecracking all through the film, no matter how many people are slaughtered right in front of him. The CIA obviously gives some of their agents happy pills before every assignment.
I actually liked this film up to the "long kiss goodnight" climax which was not just a rip off it was the exact same footage from driving through the christmas parade to the truck exploding with the exception of the close up's of the stars of this film. (its not hard to tell the difference between a mid '90's ford and a 2000 oldsmobile). I cant say dont watch it but if you go for low budget crap that looks like high budget then it is watchable.
