    • Trivia
      While filming the fight scene about halfway into the movie, Dolph Lundgren pulled a hamstring in his leg while delivering a spinning back kick. Due to complications regarding his stunt double, he would have to perform much of the action in a great deal of discomfort.
    • Goofs
      The knob on the shifter in the van that Dolph drives changes color from black to red.
    • Alternate versions
      There are two versions existing, the international one running 104 minutes (released released worldwide) and the shorter one running 89 minutes (released in France and USA).

    One of my favourite Dolph movies...
    Though this film would be classed as mediocre by most, I rate this movie fairly high. The scenery is fantastic, the soundtrack is interesting with its combination of suspense and smooth jazz, and with Dolph Lundgren side-kicked with John Ashton you get a smooth, even dose of action, adventure and comedy.

    Though the movie does seem slow at times, and you tend to forget the characters names or the reason why Dolph is actually there in the first place, the movie does provide decent suspense and action throughout.

    I didn't like the fact that Dolph's main wound (his arm) was self-inflicted and rather, well... pointless. However, the rooftop-gunfight scene (end) and the part where Dolph takes out a sniper with a handgun are simply a must see! (Believable? It is within Dolph's power, ha-ha!)

    The ending is simply awesome. Enough said.

    This movie is fantastic, you'll either rate it as a masterpiece or just a decent, action flick; but nothing lower.
