Christmas Rush

Dean Cain made a great action hero and had the best querks, Erika Eleniac had a well played character and Eric Roberts played the excellent villian but had a purpose for stealing the money, to save his son from leuquemia and needed a operation that would cost a quarter of a million dollars, ends up with a win win ending were ud have to see it to know how it ends, but it ends in a very good way. a DEFINITE 10 OUTA 10 PERFECT ACTION COMEDY DRAMA AND IS TOP NOTCH FOR A TV MOVIE AND IS BETTER THAN MOST THEATRICAL MOVIES AND HAS BETTER SPECIAL EFFECTS THAN MOST THEATRICAL MOVIES... POINTS WELL SERVED!!!!

Yes! Another pathetic waste of my time! This movie was great for it's horrible over-use of clichéd ideas, a buddy system between the criminals that's ridiculous(all of them are either friends or family to one another), mediocre plot line that would make Ed Wood look like Orson Wells. This movie was so unbelievably bad that it mesmerized and hypnotized me... no matter if the protagonist has shot down someone to death and the victim mysteriously is able to keep living later on in the film. Yes, I loved hearing about how this criminal celebrated Kwanzaa... jees, how can such a horrible movie suck me in like that? I feel raped... Hmm... more space to fill in... let's see... ah... what do you want me to say? ah... oh look! My line's are met! Yay! Well there it is then.

This is probably the better of the TBS supersation movies besides The Triangle. I found that some of the acting was a bit cheesy but hey it's enjoyable to watch. if you liked Die Hard then you might like this movie too.

After years of watching high priced Hollywood drivel (with the odd exception) I have taken to loving this type of film. Its plot is about a simplistic as you can get, and the actions scenes are very entertaining. Sure the characters are wafer thing.. But isnt that the point. I vote highly for this type of film and hope the company spits out more and more of them.

At least they reflect the budget they had, not the $100Mill pop videos that Burbank and suchlike are churning out.

Not ideal Cinema movies, but great night in front of the DVD/VHS with a bottle of your chosen and some nibbles.....

I saw this film,during the Christmas season a few years back. This is a tame version of Die Hard. It takes place in Chicago,but viewers in Canada will recognize some of the Canadian outlets. The film was made,I think in Winnepeg. A lot of shooting and action takes place in this film without the blood-gore like it was in Die Hard. A good cast the actors was assembled for this film. Originally released for TV,Christmas rush,the film is available on DVD under the title,Breakaway. This a good film to put people in the Christmas mood as well entertain you. Dean Caine, plays the role of a police officer under suspension from the police force because of a cover-up,Eric Roberts,a reformed jewel thief,retired,separated from his wife,needs the money for a life saving operation for his son. Although the film does contain some violence,it should be OK for family viewing. After a long day of Christmas shopping,if this film is being aired on TV,watch it,or is available at the video store,rent it.
