Audience Member Occupational hazard for the movie addict. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member As far as cheesy action flicks go, this is neither the worst, nor the best I've seen. Not boring enough for me to hate it. There were enough senseless shootings, and corny jokes to keep me interested, but not enough over the top ridiculousness for me to love it. I did give it an extra half star for the filmmaker's use of slow motion during emotional moments. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member I saw this one available OnDemand and I'd remember this being one of the many bad adventure movies at the video store I worked at in the 80s and 90s. I hadn't seen this one but it reminded of similar films like "Firewalker" or "Jake Speed". However, this one was even worse than those. I suppose you should only watch this one if you're a huge Nancy Allen fan. It was kind of a bad 80s version of bad 70s "women in prison" films. However, seeing a young Gina Gershon made it kind of fun. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
