Having left the CIA and Cuba many years ago, Annie (Kate Capshaw), a beautiful ex-agent has built a new life with a loving husband. Now the CIA needs her back in Cuba to rescue her old partner Malarin (Jeroen Krabbe), but once she arrives, she knows she has been set up.

Critics Reviews

Rating of 1 stars out of 5 Radio Times

Frederick Forsyth's bestselling thrillers, rather surprisingly, haven't — with the honourable exception of The Day of the Jackal — enjoyed the same success on the screen. But this made-for-TV action drama, based on an original storyline by Forsyth, marks a new low. Antonio Sabato Jr is the former Navy SEAL who has to dust off his old combat training when his wife and son are kidnapped by drug-dealers after inadvertently picking up the wrong luggage. The setting is Italy but the direction, writing and performances are sadly far from exotic.

Quite good thriller, but a bit confusing at times. Sound was very bad on this copy which added to the confusionLeicester

Really bad to watch and very boring! Something to never watch again.
