Ryan Gaerity blows himself out of a detention center in Northern
Ireland. He only has revenge on his mind against Jimmy Dove. Jimmy works
for the Boston Bomb Squad and he’s planning on retiring from the bomb
life. In Jimmy’s Irish past, he
was known as Liam and he learned about bomb making 20 years ago from Ryan. They were working for the IRA and
Liam messed up their last bomb effort because innocent civilians were
among the intended victims. Ryan was
sent to prison, Liam ran away, became Jimmy Dove and went to the United States.
Features ntricate and complicated bomb construction using unusual
equipment. Jones has the role of
crazed bomber down to a T. This
does have you on the edge of your seat at times. You are wondering what is going to
happen and it’s nice to see the actors in their younger days. Slightly dated, especially in the opening scenes, which drains some of the
energy. 3* (This movie is OK)
