After his partner is killed investigating a counterfeiter, a secret service agent becomes obsessed with cracking the case by any means necessary despite the fact that his new partner wants to go by the book. Even though this isn't a comedy, we laughed a
lot, especially early on, at the sheer '80sness of it all and the faux tough-guy vibe of William Petersen in the starring role.
Though I would've bet on this being a "D" grade at the 30-minute mark, we just couldn't deny that we were enjoying ourselves. And whoa: the car chase scene was probably the best one I've ever seen. They're being chased by literally dozens of people, all armed to the teeth, eventually even going the wrong way on the highway. That's entertainment, baby.
