Der Söldner John Seeger wird unfreiwillig in eine höchst gefährliche Mission verwickelt. Falls es ihm nicht gelingt, den Sohn des weltweit mächtigsten Drogenbarons zu befreien, sollen Mitglieder der Familie eines verstorbenen Kameraden ermordet werden. Um den Auftrag zu erledigen, muss Seeger jedoch in das bestbewachte Hochsicherheitsgefängnis Südafrikas eindringen, das als absolut ausbruchssicher gilt. (Verleiher-Text)

Fans of action movies can of course give it any number of stars, but I don't have the time or nerves for this. It's not a B-movie, as this spectacle belongs somewhere at the end of the alphabet....Overall impression: 5% for the pyrotechnics.

Compared to his other recent works, Seagal is quite watchable here, at least the action is fairly enjoyable. He doesn't really show much aikido, but there's a decent amount of shooting and explosions. The plot is a big confusing mess, so there won't be anything good there. It's not a direct return to his golden era, but we can talk about some improvement. The main attraction, however, is Jacqueline Lord, truly one of the most attractive (unknown) actresses I've seen in a long time. Steven at least manages to maintain his muscles and occasionally (just to mention) breaks someone's arm. But ten years ago, he could do it even without choppy editing...
