Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaDe Palma complained about the difficult production conditions: "I had a lot of problems in financing. I never experienced such a horrible movie set. A large part of our team has not even been paid yet by the Danish producers. The film is finished and ready to go out, but I have no idea what its future will hold, it is currently in the hands of the producers. This was my first experience in Denmark and most likely my last." [2018]

Featured review
This was a good action thriller
I don't understand why this movie has received so many negative reviews. This reminded me very much of his earlier thrillers, and in my view it was a good action movie.
I found the cinematography great, the acting passable and the action sequences suspenseful. For example, the chase sequence on the roof was clearly a homage to Hitchcock (a feature found in many of De Palma's movies), and the scene in which the viewer is suddenly made aware of the protagonist's gun being left even though it had been literally in the center of the screen for a while was quite clever. The female terrorist attack sequence was surely inspired by actual attacks in which terrorists filmed themselves in real time, and as such novel to me.
I found the pacing decent, the plot easy to follow and the international set added to the interest for me. The final action sequence, the beginning of which was signaled by a "Bolero" clone was signature De Palma: Slow motion, multiple happenings, all really drawing this viewer in.
My main criticism would be that I did not find the plot very realistic, but then, with this kind of movie it is kind of expected to suspend disbelief.
This was a pretty recognizable De Palma film which entertained me for its entire duration. I would recommend it to fans of the action thriller genre.
