I WAS WAITING for someone to mention The Final Option. It is the Towering Inferno of Beseaged foreign embassy movies. Basicallly, the plot is as follows.
A group of anti nuclear activists led by Judy Davis and backed by sinister figures with eastern european accents attack and take over the US Embassy in London. Their chief demand is for Nato to detonate a nuke over a naval base in Scotland.
After an ill advised shooting of a hostage, the British Special Air Service Counterrevolutionary Warfare team mounts a rescue mission on the embassy.
Lots of flash bangs, doors kicked down and men in black outfits with gas masks, hoods and MP-5s kicking ass.
The cool part was the way they did it. No agonizing death scenes its just commando kicks in door, shoots and says "Third floor, terrorist dead, still clearing sector."
For us gun guys, it is an essential movie. Especially the scene where the commandos rescue a man and woman by blowing a ribbon charge, breaking through a wall and killing two terrorists with double taps from Browning High Powers.
