While I don't watch a steady diet of made for TV thrillers I watch some of them for the cast members and since this stars Scott Glenn I knew I couldn't go wrong as he often is better than the material given. And while he was nearly great as always the movie itself was just ok.
Crawford (Glenn) is a CIA operative that stays in Brussels and in the beginning is asked by Doggett (William Atherton) to go to Bucharest for help his mentor and friend Higbe (Robert Loggia) to escape since some years earlier he defected to Russia. Once Crawford arrives in Bucharest and finds Higbe, they'll do their best for escape from terrorists and return home safely not before a stint to Italy.
Loggia was also good as Glenn's friend but my main problem with this movie is that in some points it was slow and hard to follow but there is yet another positive: since the day before I saw the original MAN ON FIRE and the second part of this was shot in Venice I assume that Scott Glenn loved to go to Italy for filming his movies back in the 1980s.
Overall, an ok TV movie that fans of the genre or of the stars will undoubdtely like a bit.
