Not bad, 13 October 2008
6/10
Author: gridoon2009

"Low-budget" or "straight to video / DVD" don't equal "bad" in my book, and "The Detonator", a Wesley Snipes vehicle that falls into both of the above categories, may largely be a routine actioner, but it does contain some solid action sequences and some respect-worthy stunts (most of the fights are blink-and-you'll miss them, though). The plot is reasonably twisty-turny, and Silvia Colloca adds welcome grace and emotion to the film (she even gets her own "angelic" music theme: this may sound like a corny idea, but she has the "angelic" beauty to justify it). Even the Romanian shooting locations are pretty well used. Passable action fare. (**1/2)
