Yet another formulaic, mediocre vehicle for Burt Reynolds - how could he hope to regain his popularity with films like this? The story is told in an unusually simplistic, "one plus one equals two" manner, and ends with a final shoot-out that's a virtual reprise of the finale of "Stick" (and also reminiscent of "Commando", although there are fewer bodies here). And the moment we realize that Reynolds could haven taken on the villains all along, we come to the conclusion that there was no point to this movie at all. As for Burt, his unfocused performance suggests that he probably had his mind somewhere else during the filming. (*1/2)
