Advantages: Jason Statham! Great storyline! Excellent cast! Disadvantages: Erm none!!!
, and nothing else has been taken from the bank.
Det. Conners and Det. Dekker get onto it, searching for the accomplices but each one is killed just as the police get to them. Scuppering their chances of finding out what is going on.
The storyline isn't too complicated, but isn't so simple that it's predictable, making it an interested and gripping storyline!
My Opinion:

?If a butterfly flaps it?s wings in China, it could cause a storm in New York?
Which means the very small change caused by the butterfly can change the system entirely. But underpinning all this unpredictability is something else. Chaos.
It turns out that what we assumed was being caused by ...
jumps out of nowhere to kill you. Completing a world felt like a real achievement as there were no continues just a password option for each world.
Perfect then?

Of course not. The computer controlled player could get stuck and had be "teleported" to your position, the collision detection was at times woeful and the end of level bosses largely unimaginative dinosaur mutants. A four player option would have made it complete too. However, minor niggles in a resplendent example of a genre which at the time was lacking in ideas.
