Jack is an adrenaline fuelled LAPD cop who stops terrorist, Howard Payne from getting 3 million dollars. Now Howard Payne has set up a 'game' for Jack.
There's a bomb on a bus, when the bus goes 50mph its armed, if it drops below 50mph, it blows up.
This is an all out adrenaline rush from start to finish; Keanu Reeves sounds at certain times odd, his acting comes under scrutiny but he keeps the audience locked by committing daredevil stunts, jumping onto a moving bus, sling underneath it to disarm a bomb.
Sandra Bullock is funny and sweet as the woman behind the wheel and there is chemistry between the two which works. The action is mostly on the bus, the obstacles the vehicle must overcome; the 'gap' scene is a little ...... mainly because you see the bus leap across the gap likes it alive....But still a great action movie.
