Mines That Explode Later (Than Expected)

A group of bumbling demolition experts are hired to clear out a disused military base. Unbeknownst to them, the base is still rigged with active landmines that have a faulty timer mechanism, leading to unpredictable and chaotic explosions. The team must navigate the treacherous terrain and their own incompetence to survive the day.

The film was a moderate box office success but received mixed to negative reviews from critics. While some praised its comedic elements and the chemistry of its lead actors, many found the plot implausible and the execution uneven. Audiences generally found it to be a forgettable B-movie.

• While the premise offers potential for slapstick, the execution falls flat.

• The film struggles to balance its action and comedy, often leaning too heavily on predictable gags.

• Bill Pullman and Daryl Hannah provide some charm, but can't save the weak script.

Google audience: Viewers found the movie to be a somewhat amusing, albeit predictable, action-comedy. Many enjoyed the lighthearted tone and the performances of the main cast, but a significant portion felt the plot was too silly and the special effects were dated.

The distinctive 'thud' sound effect used for the malfunctioning landmines was reportedly created by dropping a watermelon onto a pile of sand.
