- GoofsThe janitor towards the beginning gets checked with a metal detection wand and only his keys set it of. Almost a minute later, after he radios that he's found the explosives, he cuts a wire out of his arm. That would have set off the device.

Another Venue For Die Hard Fans...
Though dated, the Atlanta Olympics is the setting for this by the numbers "Die Hard" type film. Supposedly based on a scenario that "could have happened", terrorists seize the US Women's swim team and hold them hostage at the Aquatic Center. What they didn't count on is a janitor (Ashby) who also happens to be an ex-Tae Kwon Do Olympic medallist.
He takes on the terrorists while being guided through it all by Mr. Leo (Hauer), a terrorist expert with Interpol who lost his legs in an explosion caused by the terrorist leader (Divoff).
The action is strictly by the numbers with a mix of martial arts and gunplay. Ashby is excellent in his role and both Hauer and Divoff seem to be enjoying themselves in their roles.
Not seen on cable much, but I'd rent it if you happen across it at your local video store.
