Excessive is the word for this too loud, too violent, too everything “Mission Impossible” want-to-be. Although the talk of extreme violence rages on, this film pays no heed to the argument. Not only are bodies strewn throughout the seemingly endless running time, but the camera enjoys lingering on corpses. In one scene, the grisly discovery of decaying Asian aliens in an abandoned truck gets the close-up routine. It becomes nauseating as we see the dead bodies in the background while FBI agents vomit, then discuss the crime. The shootouts and karate battles are reminiscent of John Woo’s style, but lack his finesse. And who’s behind the political conspiracy? Those bad old right-wingers, of course. Not meaning to be political here, but as an observation, when did you ever see a liberal democrat sell secrets to a foreign country in a Hollywood movie?
