Plot Summary
Master thief Sam Quint (Academy Award® winner Tommy Lee Jones), hired by the government for a high-level job, hides a computer disc containing vital evidence in a sleek experimental supercar known as The Black Moon. But before Quint can recover the disc, the car is stolen by Nina, a high-tech auto thief (Linda Hamilton). With time running out, Quint must go on the prowl and break into an impenetrable skyscraper to reclaim his property. And what Sam Quint wants, he gets, no matter what he has to do. This 1986 action-packed thriller is written by John Carpenter (creator of Halloween, The Fog, and Escape from New York).

Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: Cokliss's direction strains for a stylishness it doesn't achieve, yet his fundamentally straightforward style brings out the abstract design of the plot.
Rotten: It all gets off to a cracking start, only to dwindle very rapidly into thin and predictable variations on the formulaic ploys.
