Great TV action flick - can you spot the familiar faces?.......2007-01-08

Ok I admit it. I bought the movie because three of my fave tv heroes were in there - Joe Lando (Dr Quinn Medicine Woman, Higher Ground), Rob Estes (Silk Stockings, Melrose Place) and Rachel Blakely (The Lost World.) I was surprised by so many other familiar faces in the movie.

If the Vice President looked familiar and or Kennedy-like, that is because he is Pat Kennedy Lawford and actor Peter Lawford's son - Christopher Lawford (who recently wrote his tell all autobiography.) Agent Mike Galloway was played by Kenneth Ransom who was the giant in The Lost World episode Barbarians at the Gate. Admiral Lewis played by actor Nick Tate was also in The Lost World episode The Knife as Doctor William Gull, and played the reality TV host R. Wilson Monroe in Farscape's Constellation of Doubt episode. Brad McMurray who plays Thad Burrows also had bit parts in two The Lost World episodes. Kee Chan who played Ping in the movie was Male-Dee in Star Wars Revenge of the Sith.

All in all, it was fun to see familiar faces who have worked together on my favorite series back for another go round in this TV action adventure.

Nighttime action and fun!!.......2005-02-19

Good nighttime action movie for watching with the wife on the living room sofa. Has a smooth mix of action, suspense, intrigue and romance which makes for a fun night at home.. The plot has a nice mix which keeps your attention throughout the whole film.. Very enjoyable!

THOROUGHLY ENJOYED THIS - .......2004-11-15

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie even with the breaks --
I have to laugh as the only reason I purchased the movie was because of Joe Lando.
I have enjoyed his acting and this is the 3rd one of his that I have purchased [outside of Dr. Quinn].

This is not a high powered movie but the plot was understandable and the action not impossible and the characters seemed realistic.

Just good entertainment -- what more can you ask for on a Sat. night.

BROTHERLY LOVE.......2004-09-28

It seems like the lovely and talented Rachel Blakely has a serious fan club out there, based on the other reviews. She is a stunning presence, and is very good in her role. COUNTERSTRIKE is a made for TBS movie, and overall, is well done, and tense. Rob Estes and Joe Lando are believable as brothers; they even look alike. Estes plays Thomas, an ATF agent, who is feeling guilt over the accidental climbing death of his brother. Lando is secret service agent Vince, who has a difficult time dealing with his brother. They end up on a cruise of the Queen Elizabeth II, which houses the female President of the US (a relatively cold presence, unfortunately), and the President of China who are going to make a peace conference aboard the ship. Enter a "patriot" (actually terrorist) group who plans to sabotage the ship, get the nuclear briefcase from China, and blow up the ship. Marie Matiko joins the ever growing list of Asian assassins who causes problems for our heroes.
COUNTERSTRIKE is an enjoyable film, and my only real complaint in that the transfer to DVD doesn't compensate well for the commercial breaks. But at least there aren't any commercials!

Rachel Blakely Shines in this Film.......2003-10-16

Rachel Blakely, star of "Neighbours, "Tales of the South Seas" and "The Lost World" brings many wonderful moments of charm, grace and action to this entertaining film.
