    Storyline

    • Goofs
      There is a scene in the movie where the fight manager uses a blood test to indicate that the new drug will kill 3 others but not kill the main character. If there is a blood test to determine if the new drug will kill you, why did the corporation test it on and kill over 30,000 people? And, furthermore, there would be no risk that the company would test the drug on anyone else who is at risk because they could just run the blood test first.

    Suberb movie.
    So many crap movies out there get high ratings and movies like this one are down voted and buried. I saw this movie but accident on my cable TV an boy am glad I didn't change channel. Thumbs up to the makers.
