To see the Canon logo on this thrilling action movie with terrific and layered performances from Voight (who’s especially brilliant), Roberts and DeMornay is still shocking. Makes me wonder if Menachem Golan thought he was signing off on Voight and Roberts battling ninjas atop a speeding locomotive.
