A border-town sheriff pulls out the heavy artillery to prevent an escaped drug kingpin from blasting his way into Mexico in this sun-scorched action opus. A former LAPD hot shot who opted for an easier life after becoming the sole survivor of a bloody drug raid, Ray Owens retreated from the city to become sheriff of Sommerton Junction a small town on the U.S./Mexico border. He's just adjusting to life at a more leisurely pace when infamous drug-kingpin Gabriel Cortez stages a daring escape from an FBI convoy, and sets his sights on Mexico. With a hostage to guarantee his safe-crossing and a violent mercenary named Burrell clearing him a path to the border, Cortez races south in a custom Corvette ZR1 that can outrun anything on the road. Meanwhile, Agent John Bannister realizes that should Cortez manage to slip through Sommerton Junction, he may well be lost forever. At first it seems that Sheriff Owens' skeleton crew will be no match for Cortez's speeding juggernaut. But when Owens decides to stand his ground with the help of Sommerton Junction's finest, Cortez comes up against an immovable force with enough firepower to stop him dead in his tracks. Great movie, great action, very entertaining movie with lots of guns and explosions, enjoyable to watch.Read full review
He is a better actor than a Gov. of California ... This picture is full of action from start to finish. He is the Sheriff to a small hick town, and his deputies should not even work as a Security Guards. The plot was good. Could be a family movie. A movie you want to see over again. The criminals were better armed then police. Over all it was real good movie, but not a five star. Like his other movies.

Super fantastic and completely underrated movie starring the great Arnold Schwarzenegger. Arnold is getting up there in his years but he plays the sheriff of a small town in the movie and he has a little bit of Comedy twist to this "Drama-dy". It is filled with a lot of action but it's a movie that the whole family can watch and it is not a lot of R-rated violent scenes. I wouldn't necessarily say it's a wholesome family movie but it is one that the whole family can get in on and I believe would really enjoy.
