from director john irvin ( hamburger hill ) and i do not pay the full attention to this film when it be on and but i guess it doesn not matter . basically mark kaminsky ( arnold schwarzenegger ) be kick out the fbi for rough treatment of a suspect and he wind up a sheriff of a small town in north carolina . fbi chief harry shannon ( darren mcgavin ) enlist kaminsky to get the man who kill his son and mobster luigi patrovita ( sam wanamaker ) . shannon promise to get him back in the fbi if patrovita be take down and to do this kaminsky go undercover a joseph p. brenner to join his gang . that the basic story that i get . also star paul shenar a paulo rocca and licence to kill robert davi a max keller and ed lauter a baker and joe regalbuto a marvin baxter and mordecai lawner a marcellino and steven hill a martin lamanski and blanche baker a amy kaminsky and louise robey a lamanski girl . i think the only reason i stay with this film be because of schwarzenegger and some eye catch explosion and action sequence and but i just couldn not get into the story . okay .
