Now, the actors all do their jobs well. William Hurt is excellent
as David Whitman, a NATO hazardous waste expert, Natascha
McElhone is Holly Anderson a stunning anti-terrorist brain
and they meet when a just-sacked security guard Joseph Mueller
(Peter Weller) accidentally sets off an explosion that releases
a deadly toxic virus.
Weller plays the toxin-carrying escapee for all he's worth
and anyone he comes into physical contact with dies horribly
and quickly.
Not only must Whitman and Anderson try to track down the
increasingly ill carrier, but also try to outwit some dirty-tricks
experts on their own side.
The transfer is very good and the sound adds to the at-times
nail-biting atmosphere.
However, without giving the game away, whoever dreamt up
the ending - and one would suggest it wasn't the writer -
then they should be infected with the toxin. They stuffed
up what could have been a pretty good movie.
Still, check it out for yourselves.
