David Jackson produced and scripted this Tv film. This film is inspired by the story of Alistair MacLean. You know he is the best-selling author in those times, his stories are more adventurous and charming.

Scottish Alistair proved many times that his book was the best selling because of the content or story instead of his name that is appear on the book cover. But here the producer wasn't able to make it worthy at all because when I did read this novel it was more interesting.
The main story is all about, stealing a train with hostages and some valuable diamonds in Bremen, Germany, another thing is here the Atomic bomb that was gone through in Europe. A UN crime-fighting task force has taken responsibility for stopping with local military and police forces.

First of all, I can explore my personal opinion about casting, It was excellent. Pierce Brosnan is the center starer, Patric Stewart and Alexandra Paul cast important roles and they did it well as we deserve from them. But here the script has some sloppy scenes that didn't go well.

It's ridiculous surviving from a c-4 explosion and there was no way those guys could have jumped off that speedy train without a few broken bones. But here this sequence showed these guys jumped off landed on their feet and strict they started running there is no way that could possibly without making any trouble.
The action scene was good, but so far away from realism. The sound effect isn't perfect somewhere it was more comic. Casting and acting overall are good I think they did it in their own way.

Cinematography, editing, and dubbing could be better. Actually, this is a TV film so, I was not expecting much from this film but it entertained me surprisingly. I think the budget wasn't big, but the acting cover it as well as I think.
They were able to develop their characters to keep me engaged, here Patrick Stewart makes his refined seniority. Pierce Brosnan and Alexandra Paul played two operatives' roles as a member of the Secret United Nations mission, especially Pierce Brosnan acted in a way that was more realistic. I recommended you if you are a lover of 90 movies, then you can watch it otherwise leave it.
I would like to rated it 6/10 because its acting is so good and the storyline also.
