Summary In the Battlefield of life, the time has come for one man to fight ... ; From the Director of "Flatliners" and the "Lost Boys" comes the highly controversial and powerful new thriller about an ordinary man (Michael Douglas) whose inability to cope with the pressure of everyday life involves him in an orgy of violence and self-destruction.

It is the hottest day of the year. The traffic is at a standstill. A tense looking motorist furiously abandons his car. Walking to a nearby shop he asks for some change for the phone but, when his request is refused, he swiftly demolishes the store with a baseball bat.

This is no isolated act of violence and very soon Los Angeles is faced with its latest - and potentially most lethal - vigilante.

Comments You walk into a burger bar and the woman behind the counter pleasantly declines to serve you breakfast at 11:35am. What would you do? Well, I for one would apologise for my impertinence, start fawning and entreat for an autograph. Great hat, I wonder if she kept it?

Video clips

The start of the classic breakfast at 11.35 sequence at the burger bar. Miss Fulsom declines to serve breakfast - maybe he should have asked for a veg-burger instead.
