As the government tries to figure out what's going on Slater is left with no option but to try to stop Travolta and his band of mercenaries, aided only by a feisty park ranger (Samantha Mathis). This mid 90s action flick is great fun, with Travolta chewing the scenery most entertainingly as the utterly loony villain and Slater and Mathis making for likeable heroes, together with plenty of great stunts and action sequences. Haven't seen this for donkeys years, but a hoot!
I don't know why I have only seen this once and don't own it on any format. It is something which could easily be perceived as a 'guilty pleasure', but is actually a fairly well made and hugely enjoyable action thriller.
