Worthy message (Oil Companies drilling in the Alaska wilderness is really bad) is tottly lost in a really bad dreck. Awful acting and directing, Even Michael Caine is sleep walking

| Leonard Maltin/Plot synopsis: |
After the critical/popular success of UNDER SIEGE, Seagal's clout was such that he was allowed to direct this fast-fader about the raping of Alaska's interior by an oil company run by evil Caine. Spiritual mumbo-jumbo halfway through looks like an outtake from THE DOORS, and the star's anticlimactic final speech (after the obligatory wrist-snapping has concluded) had fans bolting for the exits. Caine looks as if he's undergone cosmetic surgery by Dwight Frye. Clairmont-Scope.
