Bomba-Relógio

She only gets about ten minutes of screen time and other than a few seconds at the start of the movie she is wrapped up in a winter coat, flannel shirt or jacket. Many of her appearances are just head shots of her sitting in a truck (big deal). I honesty believe that the producers lured Morgan into this overcooked turkey and I don't like to say it, but I think she may have taken it just to make a fast buck. I am a Morgan Fairchild fan and I was very disappointed.

I saw this movie as a kid, and the most awe-inspiring thing is the incredible soundtrack by Sylvester Levay (creator of the Airwolf TV series music). It was so good, in fact, that I recorded it on cassette tape, a tape I still have to this day. Electronic music virtuoso Sylvester Levay virtually all but disappeared from the TV music theme after his great success with the popular musical Elisabeth. I hope that he will return one day to his roots as a TV musician.

However, the movie itself, as I remember, was forgettable, the only thing I remember is that it was a truck out of control (kind of a predecessor to Speed) Billy Dee Williams was fairly good as the lead.

I spent a great moment watching this Tv movie from the deep eighties. I loved it, even if there are many expected lines. I loved Morgan Fairchild's character, in the pure line of Marthe Keller's one in BLACK SUNDAY, where - as here - she killed the hero's best friend. It was Robert Shaw instead of Billy Dee Williams who then intended a fierce revenge agaisnt the evil terrorist lady. Yes, yes, I love this kind of reverse scheme. Good hero vs the Evil female gang leader. But BLACK SUNDAY was a masterpiece, with more budget and a better directing though.

I thought this movie was awesome. I would love to own this movie and cannot seem to find it. Billy Dee Williams and Merlin Olson both played outstanding roles in this film. Morgan Fairchild could have done a better job of acting in this film, however, the plot and the emotions that came with this movie was outstanding!!It is a movie that makes you feel love, hate, sadness, and victorious all at the same time. Terrorism is a serious problem we all face, especially after 9/11, and to see goodness win over terrorism in this film and the good guys able to get their man --- or as is the case in this film - their woman, leaves you with a very good feeling.

I really enjoyed the movie. I believe each character was portrayed with lots of emotion for their part in the movie, one would have empathy for the various character's causes. One incident could effect so many lives. How easily we forget, the various people whom have causes, even if we may not agree with them - they are there. Then there are the people whom put their lives in harms way everyday for their own cause, to protect us from the causes that other people truly feel so much passion. Since 911, we have had to think twice about the various people in the world and their causes, that affect our lives on a larger scale and still maintain some kind of a normal secure life.
