Burt Reynolds is the lead man in a team of mercenaries being run by the CIA. Sent in to get a fifty-million-dollar maguffin, they make a lot of things go boom, and most of them wind up dead. Not Reynolds and Matt Battaglia. Battaglia decides he wants to retire. He takes half of the maguffin and disappears. Reynolds realizes his bosses want him dead too. He takes his half of the maguffin anf disappears, and builds a team of private mercenaries. A few years later, Reynolds shows up and demands his half of the maguffin. Battaglia says he destroyed it. Reynolds goes around killing various corrupt government officials, and takes Battaglia's girl friend, Krista Allen hostage.
It's a fine movie if you want to watch things go boom, and Reynolds reciting his lines adequately, if you can put up with Harry Mafredini's dumb score. For a good actor, Reynolds made a lot of bad movies, and turned down a lot of good ones. I suppose it was based on the size of the check. This one clearly was large enough. It never had a theatrical release.
