Director : Christian Duguay
Running Time : 114 mins

United Nations covert operative Neil Shaw (Snipes) is well known by his bosses for his ability to ensure peace between the USA and other nations through sneaky tactics, but when a Chinese ambassador is killed during the celebration of a new trade agreement between the US and China, Shaw finds himself framed fror the murder and on the run from both the FBI and a mob of Triads.

This is a great action movie that really allows Snipes to make more of his acting abilities. He attempts comedy as well as the typical action-hero type of acting we’re used to, and the story manages to remain convincing even when it goes completely over the top. A fun-filled thriller in the vein of The Fugitive.
