Storyline

A geo-political thriller where Gerry Anderson finds that sometimes, everybody really is out to get you. Gerry's daughter, Mattie, accidentally prints out a DNA code that in the wrong hands can end the human race. The chase is on - the Russians, whose DNA code it is that Mattie has in her backpack, and a group of terrorists compete to get the code from the person they all assume has it, Gerry. With all this going on, Gerry's estranged wife Margaret is worried for her daughter's safety and finds herself another target in the race to find the code.

User Reviews

Below average tv movie

This film must have been artificially 'pumped up'. A couple of people, probably with a stake in the movie, have been giving high notes. Which is totally undeserved. This film brings you nothing new. You've seen all the elements a hunderd times before. Yet some film makers succeed in creating a good movie anyway, but this film maker doesn't. The acting is poor, everything is poor and predictable. Spend your time on something else.
