Highly exciting film about a lunatic criminal who takes a busload of prisoners hostage and threatens to blow them up if high-stakes ransom money isn't delivered. This film's action sequences probably broke a couple of Newton's Laws, but who cares? The huge downfall to this film is that the acting and the dialogue are completely ghastly, but everything else is first-rate!
