Put up your hand and than catapult it down, and say "bah!" to this film. An extremely weak film, that is based upon some old, already used cliché, you know "terrorists taking over, one man army, bunch of hostage", this time in the mountain hotel. Well... yahoo.We got Thomas Ian Griffith (Karate Kid 3, Vampires) as a leading action man, but he looked here like he didn't give a damn for this film. He was even slow in martial arts scenes, he can do faster than that, but when you're doing a low budget film... what's the point? Christopher Plummer is here! What a hell? A great, classically trained actor to appear in such low budget crap as a leading villain? I don't understand... what is attractive to such great actors in low budget films? We also have Nastasja Kinski... well, she was OK.There isn't much to say about this crap film. Except... you can watch it if you want to... fall asleep for example.

Why can't you get this movie on DVD. I thought it was an excellent movie when I first saw it and have seen it many times since on video. I would like to add it to my DVD collection. I like this sort of movie although by the ratings it didn't appeal to some. Ánother one i like is bird on a wire but have trouble getting that one as well. I'm not into real violent movies and like a bit of romance as well. I often look on your web sight to find out if its been released on DVD yet plus many other movies. I've just bought Towering Inferno to add to my collection. My daughter often visits your web site too. I would love to add Crackerjack to it the one that was released in 1994 starring Thomas Ian Griffith

If you like the gifted Kinski and the excellent Christopher Plummer you can give this piece a (one) chance. Bang! Plummer deserves all the praise for his portrait of a real baddie with a clever and cynical mind. But do not expect to much brain of this B-picture.

but Thomas Ian Griffith just doesn't have the polish that a big bucks actor has, granted this was made 5+ years ago. Some of the humorous lines could have been timed to make this not only action, but comedy. And how do you get KC out of Katia Koslovska anyhow? Plummer's character was so corny, he would have fit better in a Bullwinkle toon. Personally, if action flicks are going to show skin -- I'd have liked to have seen equal time between female/male, otherwise don't show any.
