Story: |
After leaving his LAPD narcotics post following a bungled operation that left
him wracked with remorse and regret, Sheriff Ray Owens (Schwarzenegger) moved
out of Los Angeles and settled into a life fighting what little crime takes
place in sleepy border town Sommerton Junction. But that peaceful existence is
shattered when Gabriel Cortez, the most notorious, wanted drug kingpin in the
western hemisphere, makes a deadly yet spectacular escape from an FBI prisoner
convoy.
With the help of a fierce band of lawless mercenaries led by the icy Burrell,
Cortez begins racing towards the US-Mexico border at 250 mph in a
specially-outfitted Corvette ZR1 with a hostage in tow. Cortez' path: straight
through Summerton Junction, where the whole of the U.S. law enforcement,
including Agent John Bannister (Forest Whitaker) will have their final
opportunity to intercept him before the violent fugitive slips across the
border forever.
At first reluctant to become involved, and then counted out because of the
perceived ineptitude of his small town force, Owens ultimately rallies his
team and takes the matter into his own hands, setting the stage for a classic
showdown.
