What Would You Do If You Lost Everything? . Nothing is more dangerous than a man with nothing to lose.Revenge actioner pits Arnie against against the Columbian terrorists whose actions caused a personal massacre. Decent thriller containing suspense, noisy action-packed , intrigue, shootouts , plot twists and loads of violence. A good action movie for Arnold fans, in which fireman Arnold takes matter into his own hands and sets out to catch, The Wolf , the rebel leader of Columbia's civil war and the one responsible for his family's demise, and , of course, using the heavy department artillery working overtime. There's lots of action and Arnold Schwarzenegger looks great. This is a predictable , run-of-the-mill thriller , even formulaic , but the usual formula works , at times . Arnie as a two-fisted agent is nice, and , of course , he shoots lots of people , as our hero will eventually mow down the entire syndicate of bad guys just like Charles Bronson and Chuck Norris. Violence , noisy action, grisly killings and bloodshed ensue here and there. Arnold retuns to a familiar big-budget action territory as a firefighter, good family man who seeks justice and relentless revenge against the cause of his misfortune . Highlights are John Turturro as an exiled Canadian working as a mechanic and Leguizano as Felix, the Columbian drug producer. Being well accompanied by the beauty Italian Francesca Neri, along with a notable plethora of familiar secondaries , such as Raymond Cruz, Rick Worthy, Lindsay Frost, Miguel Sandoval, Harry Lennix, Jack Conley, Todd Allen, Greg Collins, Bruce Ramsay, Michael Cavanaugh, Rodrigo Obregón, Nicholas Pryor, among others. Mexico subs for Columbia well photographed by Adam Greenberg in this unbelievable and formulaic thriller for genre enthusiasts and Arnold fans only.The motion picture was professionally directed by Andrew Davis, but nothing special, he's a filmmaker with a reputation for directing intelligent thrillers. Director Davis provides this film with great plot strength since he himself is an expert in physics and engineering. He has made good and boxoffice films, such as ¨Above the law¨, ¨The final terror¨ , ¨Chain reaction¨ , ¨Collateral damage¨ , ¨The Package¨ and Davis went on to direct 1992's top grossing picture, ¨Under siege¨ (1992), for Warner Brothers, a classic action film teaming Steven Seagal with Tommy Lee Jones. Being his greatest hit ¨The fugitive¨, this film received seven Academy Award nominations including Best Picture and earned Tommy Lee Jones a Best Supporting Actor award. Andrew Davis frequently casts 'Ron Dean', Chelcie Ross, Joseph F. Kosala, Joe Pantoliano and his father 'Nathan Davis' . He often directs in his city : Chicago. Rating: 5.5/10. Passable and acceptable but inferior than other Andrew Davis films.

one of Arnold's weakest vehicles

I remember a time, in the not too distant past, when any new movie starring Arnold Schwarzenegger was treated as an event. Nowadays, his films slip in and out of town with nary a person even noticing. What's happened? The sad but obvious explanation is that, as he's aged, Arnold has had to make way for younger, more dynamic action stars, leaving him stuck with leftover crumbs like `Collateral Damage,' a dull, lackluster action film that manages to kick itself into high gear only in its final half hour or so. `Collateral Damage' was, of course, one of those films whose original release date had to be postponed in the wake of the September 11th terrorist attacks. In this case, the sensitivity arose as a result of the film's storyline, which revolves around a group of Colombian terrorists determined to strike at targets on American soil. Schwarzenegger plays fireman Gordy Brewer, whose wife and child are killed in an explosion at the Colombian consulate in Los Angeles. Brewer, feeling that the U.S. government has little concern with exacting revenge from the terrorist leader responsible for the explosion, decides to mount a one-man crusade to see that justice is ultimately done. The film, obviously indifferent to its own need for plausibility, sends this virtually unarmed fireman into the unfamiliar jungles of South America to take on what appears to be the entire Colombian police force as well as the guerilla fighters whose actions resulted in the deaths of Brewer's family. Brewer, of course, despite his own inexperience and the formidable odds against him, manages to talk and/or fight his way out of every dire predicament before rescuing his nemesis' wife and their adopted son. There isn't much to say about `Collateral Damage' except to report that the film does achieve a certain tension in the closing stretches, when Brewer returns to Washington D.C. to help foil a plot to detonate a bomb in that city. Thanks to a few nice plot twists, the film ends up not being a total loss when all is finally said and done.It's never much fun to have to witness an actor in the sunset of his career. But if Schwarzenegger's films don't start improving soon, he may well have to switch to that career in politics he has reportedly been looking into between films.
