I liked this. I don't understand the complaints

maybe some of the dialogue was TV movie quality, yeah

but it was overall good. i get a vibe off this movie. it has that 'man against the system' feel to it. and i think irons and whittaker were great. (not sure why the FBI was in london, but anyway)

i think priestly did fine, despite what the cry babies here reported.


it's the context, subtext, that matters in this film. when he goes to the authorities and runs up against the red tape machine, it just chapped my arse. made me angry against the 'system' and immediately i started pulling for irons. so when he begins to take action, i found that very satisfying.

what i don't understand is why the authorities would be UPSET that terrorists were dead. i mean, ISN'T THAT THE EFFING POINT ANYWAY??????? really, this made me wanna slap some of the people in this film. (and in real life)


i watched this one ten years ago and always remembered it. irons is one of my faves, and he did a good job here. this movie has that 'late 90s early 2000s' feel to it that i love to see. that was a good era for films IMO.
