Don't Believe the Hype
By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
William Baldwin is a Denver policeman that come hell or high water will avenge the killing of his wife during a drug bust gone bad. Some blatant violence and the obligatory, mostly implied sexuality for spice. The story is a little hackneyed, but you have to root for the frustrated Baldwin. Brigitte Bako is absolutely gorgeous and impressive with her mood swings. Lee Majors at this age finds a part that he carries off real well. Tim Ryan and Robert Madrid are notable in support. Intrigue, anxiety and revenge keeps the story moving.
An undercover police officer MUST think ahead and fast to survive.Christian Box may be an over stressed police officer but even with that foundation he would not take the actions the writer gives and live.This reminds me of a slasher drive-in movie with inexperienced kids walking blindly into each new situation without thinking ahead.The writer is trying to have the viewer believe stupidity is a character flaw when it is just stupidity.
