Surprisingly good

I caught this on the local Action channel and was expecting mindless entertainment, or as we say in South Africa, "Skop, skiet en Donner", translation: "shooting, kicking and beating up". :) Boy, was I wrong! This film is much too cerebral to be on an action channel whose main attraction is a Steven Seagal festival! It's brilliant. It has such a good story that grips you from start to finish. The acting is outstanding, all the male leads are superb, Colm Feore, David Paymer and Arliss Howard putting in usually good performances.The script is excellent and the cinematography top notch for what is essentially a B-movie. I thoroughly enjoyed it and can recommend it highly.
