Carlos I It's not doing much unique, but it's a fun enough action/thriller. If you're a fan of truck or chase films or any of this cast you should have some fun with this. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 09/14/24 Full Review Heather S Swayze...Swayze and great supporting cast. It is what it is, a fun blow up the cars type of fun. Gorgeous Brian Vincent is a stunner. and Randy TRAVIS!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/22/24 Full Review Liam D A tight 89 minute long thriller that Director Kevin Hooks (The Orville, Supernatural) does very well with the late great Patrick Swayze (Tall Tale, 11:14) playing a different kind of action hero he was used to Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/23/24 Full Review Bryan B Good action movie to pass the time. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 11/30/23 Full Review snowsmoney42616 m Always a classic. I know every line in this movie. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/07/23 Full Review Audience Member Great classic movie.
