    Storyline

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Arnold Schwarzenegger only agreed to star in this picture after much haggling in exchange for dissolving his multi-picture agreement with Dino De Laurentiis. He had one picture left with the producer and was actually very interested in doing Total Recall (1990), but De Laurentiis objected, feeling that he was not suitable for the lead role of Quaid. Instead, Patrick Swayze was already cast before the bankruptcy.
    • Goofs
      The glass door of the clothes shop shatters before the guy actually hits it. A similar mistake was made in Remo Williams: The Adventure Begins (1985) & Death Wish 4: The Crackdown (1987).

    What do you think I look like, Dirty Harry?
    I have been soaking up a lot of vicarious aggression lately with Van Damme, Stallone, and Ahnuld. I bet a lot of Arnie's fans have missed this little gem. No, we don't look for quality here, but Schwarzenegger does a credible job of acting and he keeps throwing out these funny lines that keep you in stitches.

    Nothing original here - failed FBI agent, now small town Sheriff (think Bruce Willis in Hostage or Striking Distance, Tom Selleck as Jesse Stone, or many others who are out in the cold because of their screw-ups or someone's evil deed - called to infiltrate the mob and bring them down.

    You know Arnie's going to get the job done with muscle and firepower. He even manages a little romance - damn little - with Kathryn Harrold.

    Paybacks are hell!

    • Why did Joey go down that alley after leaving the casino?
    • How did Max Keller connect Mark Kaminsky with Harry Shannon? The Miami cop was only able to tell him that the picture was not Joseph Brenner.
