action
In Bucharest , the US American ex- Delta Force soldier Jack Tuliver and his gang rob three Vanderbrink money transporters at the same time. Then the criminals attack the central depot of Vanderbrink. There, in addition to sacks full of money, they also bring a locked metal suitcase into their possession.
During the ensuing escape, a strange gang gets in their way and kills almost all of Tuliver's friends. Jack escapes with the mysterious suitcase. When he was almost arrested near a café by the now alarmed police, he took hostage the British military policeman Kelly Anders, who happened to be present at a nearby NATO base.
Shortly afterwards she is released by Jack. However, they stay in touch via their cell phone, which Tuliver Anders has stolen. Together with Anders, Tuliver sets out to find the people behind it. It soon turns out that the suitcase contains a previously unknown and valuable Van Gogh painting - The Lilies in the Field .
Reviews
“The rest of 7 seconds is characterized by some really exciting depictions of violence. [...] Between the action everything seems extremely routine, which is made worse by a carelessly written script. "
"If you don't let yourself be deterred by typical DTD-B-Movie errors / clichés / illogic, you will finally get a healthy dose of action again."
"Action-packed B gangster film that runs out of breath and money (in terms of content) towards the end."
