Pretty good film


It's interesting how the pacing of this kind of thriller has changed in 20+ years - for the worst I think. If they made it now it would be faster, there would be more guns, a car chase and some over the top hand to hand combat - plus the music would probably be crap. Nice to see Carrie Preston in there as well.

it is one of broose's better films. he is very good in this film. and it have good, original story.

today this film would have transgender kid instead of autisic kid, and he hold secret code to white supremacy and not undercover agent.

If you know anything about the movie, it was a box office bomb and was panned by critics in its time. My biggest complaint is the music, which is very dreary.

They wanted it to have more guns, more car chases (it had a car chase), and some Bruce Li nonsense. This movie is amazing, just as it is!

I don't think American audiences like the idea of the federal government murdering a boy to protect an encryption code. It bombed.

Maybe it was just released at the wrong time. 😉
