The film tells the story of Dick Da Silva and Matthew Fox, two New York police officers who suddenly move to the anti-terrorism squad. At that time, Wallgar, a notorious international terrorist, appears in New York. In a short while, Deke DaSilva comes face to face in front of Wulfgar and hesitates to shoot him despite telling him what will happen in those moments. Eventually, when the bombs start blowing, he thinks about what will happen.
A taut urban thriller with a hissable villain and an unforgettable ending. One of Stallone's best films.

Though there's never much doubt how the duel will end, the climax is nonetheless surprising and totally satisfying, topping the energy of the previous pursuit.
This very effective thriller features a chilling performance by Hauer as the emotionless killing machine. Stallone and Williams are also credible, and the film makes good use of its New York locations.
While the plotting is familiar (especially after countless imitations), competent scripting, direction and acting make this above average entertainment.
