Matt Weston is a CIA rookie manning a safe
house in Cape Town, South Africa. Tobin Frost, the CIA's most wanted
rogue agent goes to the American Consulate where he knows he will be
arrested and he is taken to the safe house. During Frost's brutal
interrogation, the safe house is overtaken by the same men who were
after Frost before he came to the house. Weston and Frost escape and
try to stay out of the sight until they can get to another
safe house.
Frost tells Weston that
the only way these men found the safe house was that someone on the
inside told them about Frost's location. Frost starts yelling in a crowd that he's
being kidnapped and escapes, Weston is told to report to Langley. Just
as he's about to do this, he recalls something that Frost did that helps him
figure out where Frost could be going. When he arrives, the men who
are after Frost show up but Weston saves him and they head off on the
run again.
This is filled with
action, one of the best car chases that I've seen. I don't know what
the body count turns out to be, you can't keep track, everything is
happening quickly. You don't know how this is going to turn out, can
Frost be brought in, can Weston survive this? 4* (I really liked this
movie)
