It's a nice 90s action movie. Steven Segal is magnetic with his aikido chops. The plot is rich with healthy use of special effects. The villains' acting is quite engaging. Whether it is the mad scientist turned terrorist or his mercenary crew, they all did justice to their roles. The movie, especially in the second half manages to maintain a great level of suspense and the pacing of action sequences is good. The dialogues could have been written better. The writing unfortunately doesn't hold a candle to other 90s cheesy flicks such as commando. But the plot and screenplay more than makes up for this shortcoming. I highly recommend this movie to all action-suspense-thriller fans.
