SYNOPSIS

This dull thriller stars Pierce Brosnan as a tough-guy debt collector confronting unscrupulous developers who want to build a chemical plant in a quiet Irish town. Brosnan's watchable, but displays little of the charisma that he'd bring later to James Bond. But, back in the 1980s, he was still essentially a TV star, and hadn't yet learned to project his persona for the cinema screen. A rock-solid support cast includes Patrick Bergin, Alison Doody and Ray McAnally.
