action
The tug captain Lamont Dixon receives the order from the oil company TYMERCO to bring an oil platform lying in the port of San Diego to its place of operation off the coast. A group of environmental activists led by Michael Kittredge demonstrated against the project. They accompany the tugboat and the oil platform to their destination. After a fake fire on the supposedly wrecked ship of the environmental activists, they are rescued by Dixon and brought to the oil platform.
There it quickly becomes apparent that those who have just been rescued are not environmentalists, but tough terrorists. Their leader Talbot Skyler, who disguised himself as Michael Kittredge, wants to bombard mainland California with an e-bomb to cause a large-scale power outage. As a result of this power outage, it should no longer be possible to reconstruct illegal money shifts in the billions that were previously carried out by his cronies.
But Dixon is not ready to watch the terrorists go by and stands in their way. In the hacker Jamal, who has arrived in common with the terrorists, but claims a hidden operating FBI -Agent to be, Dixon found a valuable ally. A heated battle breaks out between the good and the bad, which demands many sacrifices. In the end, thanks to the help of Dixon and Jamal, the authorities succeed in recapturing the oil platform and freeing the remaining hostages, while the e-bomb detonates below the surface of the water, thus preventing its devastating electromagnetic effect.
criticism
The lexicon of international films wrote that the film was a "cheaply produced action film" and that it "squinted overly clearly at the Die Hard series".
