Warning: Spoilers
A story spliced together from similar movie plots this is basically a chase movie with the hero Eddie Kay eluding his homicidal pursuers while trying to discover what is going on and why he has disturbing flashbacks. It has gunfights, fights, explosions and mystery so am not sure why I found it a bit bland and non-engaging.

It has a fine cast including Michael Biehn, Richard Jordan, Billy Blanks, Robert Culp (hardly in it) and Raymond St. Jacques but the script and dialogue let them down. And unfortunately Patsy Kensit (implausible as a psychotherapist) plays her role inspired by the Open Mouth School of Acting perfected by Daisy Ridley in those horrendous 'Star Wars' sequels. Other reviewers rate this film higher than me so perhaps I'm missing something.
