The new Arnold Schwarzenegger movie is plotted like a series of old serials that have been combined and compressed, such that every ten minutes (or so) our hero must beat the clock to avoid another peril. Sirens! The cops are coming! Shots fired! The bad guys are coming! Parachute is tangled! The ground is coming! This methodical (and intentional?) approach is actually a *good* thing, given the patchwork of implausibilities, improbabilities, and other ignored concerns contained in the script. Arnie stars a steel-jawed U.S. Marshall who works for the Witness Protection Program and who has been assigned to protect-- at any cost-- a young woman (Vanessa Williams) who is blowing the whistle on her treasonous employer. The chutes and ladders involve a political conspiracy, some very high-tech weaponry, and, heaven help us, another mole inside of a secretive government agency.
