  • ""A great movie. Michael Douglas explodes back onto our screens" The Sun. "Michael Douglas's best performance to date... explosive...always gripping."Daily Mail. "An immensely entertaining action thriller." Daily Star. In the battlefield of life, the time has come for one man to fight back...From the Director of 'Flatliners' and 'The Lost Boys' comes the highly controversial and powerful new thriller about an ordinary man (Michael Douglas) whose inability to cope with the pressures of everyday life involves him in an orgy of violence and self-destruction. It is the hottest day of the year. The traffic is at a standstill. A tense looking motorist furiously abandons his car. Walking to a nearby shop he asks for some change for the phone but, when his request is refused, he swiftly demolishes the store with a baseball bat. This is no isolated act of violence and very soon Los Angeles is faced with its latest and potentially most lethal vigilante."
