The film starts well yet soon becomes yet another Hollywood attempt to cash in on the success of the die hard series. Unfortunately the script sucks and for a film so focused on action it is just poorly directed with no sense of where anyone is on this mountain range where people can seemingly appear from nowhere when the plot suits thus wasting what could be its great source of tension (i.e actually allow difficulty with characters scaling a mountainous terrain in pursuit of the mcguffin). The cast are fantastic and given some entertainingly corny lines.
