The Detonator (2006)
Not so bad, after all
I wasn't expecting much from The Detonator because both 7 Seconds and The Marksman were incredibly bad.
So i was surprised to see this is better. They cast better actors, there is a marginally better storyline and director, and overall it works. Some action sequences are entertaining, the stunts are quite brave in Romania. They don't seem to be scared to get hurt.
Snipes in fun to watch and is well supported by his leading lady, Silvia Colloca. She does a good job in portraying the sexy and mysterious Nadia and you get to care for her even if she plays tough. I liked the final sequence between Snipes, Colloca and the bad Romanian guy quite a bit.
6 out of 10. Could have been better, but it looks like the budget of 15,000.000 USD went into Snipes account as instead of in the film...
