Review of Subterfuge

Subterfuge (1996)
3/10
A deadly, if unbelievable, game
23 September 2001
CIA, Russian, Drug Smugglers, Handsome men and beautiful women, what more could one ask in a movie. Plot maybe? Or at least one that didn't have more holes than a pound of swiss cheese. Jonathan (Matt McColm) is hired to recover the black box from a civilian aircraft shot down by the Russians. He drags along his sidekick, the computer nerd, and the attactive Alex (Amanda Pays)on an adventure where he gets to use stealth boats, lots of scuba gear, and his feet and fists and spend time lounging on beaches every time there are a few extra minutes.

There were so many goofs and mistakes in the movie that if someone ever documents them in the "goofs" area they would take a day to print out.

In a restaurant scene a bad guy perfectly shoots a singer in the center of the forehead from thirty feet away with a handgun on his first shot. Then he proceeds to miss everyone else until his gun is empty. The movie was full of things like that. If you watch this movie be prepared to suspend belief for the duration.
