maybe not very good, depending on your preference

let's see, a motorcycle gang with irish accents, tries to defuse a nuclear weapon sort of difficulty movie. (duh)

the weapons expert in this so-called movie declares that 'if this detonater goes off, it will destroy everything in a 50 mile radius' gee, that's a heck of a detonator, don't ya think? why bother with a bomb, if the mere detonaters take out a 50 mile radius?

this is a ridiculous movie, really not worth watching.

Irish terrorists vs bikers
dejonlee12 February 2005
I was a bit player in this which is notable for the early presence of Michael Rooker. Even in this, he shows his ability. A few of the others also are decent. The film is watchable and notable because of its distinctive non-California look and scenery. Best enjoyed late night. Plot: Irish terrorists steal an atomic device, kidnap a scientist, ludicrous casting there, and run into a group of old buddies on a motorcycle road trip. Some humor but suffers from flabbiness in pace. I enjoy it because many of my friends are in it. It's general level is that of a typical made for TV or SciFI channel which is to say, not very good. Martin Sheen's brother does his usual more than adequate job as one of the bikers.
