Summary: Must see for fanbases!
Review: Fans of Joe Lando or Rob Estes will find this a must see movie. The plot is a bit predictable and for some a bit disturbing in the wake of 9/11 (which caused a year's delay in the movie's release). Still dispite it predictability there is some things worth the time. If you like the action adventure type movies this is one you should check out. If you are fans of the forementione Lando and Estes definately check it out. If your into the strong willed heroine who doesn't need a man to save her, she can save herself, this one is for you. Because Lando and Estes have quite a leading lady working with them in Actress Rachel Blakely (of the syndicated series The Lost World). Blakely is definately an untapped treasure, not only is she attractive, sexy and a talented actress, but she can whip ass in a long gown and high heels. Is this a Bond Girl in the making or what? Blakely alone makes this movie worth checking out, of course Lando and Estes don't hurt either.

Summary: Rachel Blakely is fantastic in this movie
Review: Having seen this movie a numerous of times already, I keep enjoying to watch it. Not only Joe Lando and Rob Estes are good in it, but Rachel Blakely (some might know her as Gaby Willis in Neighbours & Marguerite Krux in The Lost World) kicks some butt as well *grin*. She steals the show from the male lead characters, playing a security person on the ship.

Summary: THOROUGHLY ENJOYED THIS -
Review: I thoroughly enjoyed this movie even with the breaks --
I have to laugh as the only reason I purchased the movie was because of Joe Lando.
I have enjoyed his acting and this is the 3rd one of his that I have purchased [outside of Dr. Quinn].
This is not a high powered movie but the plot was understandable and the action not impossible and the characters seemed realistic.
Just good entertainment -- what more can you ask for on a Sat. night.

Summary: BROTHERLY LOVE
Review: It seems like the lovely and talented Rachel Blakely has a serious fan club out there, based on the other reviews. She is a stunning presence, and is very good in her role. COUNTERSTRIKE is a made for TBS movie, and overall, is well done, and tense. Rob Estes and Joe Lando are believable as brothers; they even look alike. Estes plays Thomas, an ATF agent, who is feeling guilt over the accidental climbing death of his brother. Lando is secret service agent Vince, who has a difficult time dealing with his brother. They end up on a cruise of the Queen Elizabeth II, which houses the female President of the US (a relatively cold presence, unfortunately), and the President of China who are going to make a peace conference aboard the ship. Enter a "patriot" (actually terrorist) group who plans to sabotage the ship, get the nuclear briefcase from China, and blow up the ship. Marie Matiko joins the ever growing list of Asian assassins who causes problems for our heroes.
COUNTERSTRIKE is an enjoyable film, and my only real complaint in that the transfer to DVD doesn't compensate well for the commercial breaks. But at least there aren't any commercials!

Summary: Five Stars For Rachel Blakely!
Review: This is a good movie on its own, filled with intrigue, drama, adventure and action. The stars - Lando and Estes fulfill their roles admirably.But the real reason for watching is actress Rachel Blakley (best known for the TV series THE LOST WORLD) who plays a gorgeous security supervisor aboard the hijacked ship. An excellent actress, Miss Blakely steals the show from her male leads. Any woman who can remain classy while fighting in a sexy gown and high heels has got to get a thumbs up from this reviewer. Fun movie. Great cast. Worthy of a watch. Enjoy. *Special Note* For those of you who are fans of shows like THE LOST WORLD or BEASTMASTER, watch for the familiar faces of your favorite Australian actors.

Summary: Rachel Blakely does it again!
Review: This is a very enjoyable action/adventure story. It takes place on a cruise liner where two powers of state hold a sumit meeting to talk over peace negotiations. Terrorists take over the ship and hold everyone hostage. Rachel Blakely shines as a British officer who kicks some serious terrorist butt and helps to save the passengers of the endangered ship.
