Ticker

A retired bomb squad expert is drawn back into action when a vengeful explosives expert targets his former police partner and begins a city-wide reign of terror. The villain plans to detonate a series of bombs, escalating his attacks to cause maximum destruction. The hero must race against time to disarm the explosives and save innocent lives, all while confronting his own past demons.

The film was panned for its predictable plot, excessive violence, and Seagal's typically subdued performance. Audiences also largely disregarded the film, contributing to its low critical standing.

• Overly violent and predictable action flick.
