Ron Silver gets his due

Warning: Spoilers
I do not like Ron Silver. I don't like his politics and I don't like his characters. When he gets it, I am happy. This movie made me very happy for two reasons: he has the absolutely worst haircut in the world, so I get to laugh at him throughout, and he gets his just desserts.

He plays a sleazy Senator who is on the take and screwing with Danny O'Neill's (Pierce Brosnan) wife (Lisa Eilbacher). O'Neill is an FBI agent specializing in bombs. Not a great job by Brosnan, but the bomb in the film is one of the best parts as it is an original and gruesome device.

Did I mention that Silver gets what's coming to him? Yes!
