Product Description

A terrorist, Michael Kittredge (Jones), posing as an environmentalist protester leads a team of highly-skilled mercenaries to take control of an oil rig off the coast of California, intending to detonate an electromagnetic bomb over the United States, striking a sort of "new Pearl Harbor" attack on behalf of enemies to the nation. What Kittredge didn't count on is a tugboat captain, Lamont Dixon (Griffin), who survives an attack on his ship, and is soon recruited by an FBI agent (Fox) to infiltrate the oil rig and procure information about their plans... and if possible, stop them. In the process, Dixon meets an eager computer expert (Meyer) aboard the oil rig who helps Dixon even as he gets on his nerves and Lamont suspects he can't really trust him.

Customer Reviews

Surprising
Eddie Griffin (Lamont) played the action hero brilliantly without even losing his humour. He'll have u laughing silly with his jokes & I was surprised to see the stunts that he pulled off along with his sidecick Breckin Meyer (undercover hacker). My only letdown was Vivica Fox's role. She wasn't bad for an FBI agent, but the FBI presence had almost no purpose to the film, I'd rather she her going to oil rig herself.

For a low-budget movie, I'd say "Blast" was pretty well done. The storyline (though creatively laced with enough unexpected scenarios to keep u guessing what's happening next) had a few holes left to be desired. Watch this only when u have spare time. It's a good action thriller to watch. Oh! Look out for Shaggy (reggae recording artist)...not bad for a movie debut.

Blast not much of a blast.
The movie is quite mediocre, but not as bad as you may think. The casting of Eddie Griffin as a tough action guy is ridiculous, to say the least. But the reason I bought this dvd is because Nadine Velazquez is so hot! She plays a villain, is incredibly flexible and does some great martial arts kicks. I hope she will be in other movies as the baddie, but in a much bigger, sexier, and action packed role. It's worth getting this movie if you love beautiful latino women, even though you don't see enough of her in the film.

Not bad
Eddie proved that he can do a serious role. I was impressed by his acting and the movie was ok.
