Aroview: Slick jungle thriller kept interesting by a far from basic storyline involving US troops on a training mission in Panama.

When the squad runs into trouble one stormy night and the leader (Jackson) is murdered, investigators Travolta and Neilsen are brought in to interrogate, digging out various conflicting versions of events. sadly, this can't quite keep a grip on its increasingly preposterous plot, climaxing with an 11th hour twist from hell.
