I liked the movie.
But the least realistic and generally pointless part of the film for me was the cop chase of the motorbike in the wilderness.
Yes the cop in the diner got the bike's number plate. No problem.
But how did they find where he was camping way off road out in the wilderness.
And how did so many cops rock up in four wheel drives and motor bikes without him knowing or even hearing them approach.
And then when they sprung into action none of them even looked capable of catching a cold, let alone JCVD.
I think it was a wasted exercise and the film was humming along very nicely without a noisy, unrealistic, semi-slow motion, mechanised chase scene.
What do others think? -

Hmmm, pretty much on point with this comment.
But it is a JCVD action movie (smile), and Rosanna also had another movie released the same year, and PULP FICTION the next, so maybe they had to fill some time with the chase in the movie, and she wasn't as available to do filler scenes.
And you know there were several sequences cut down or completely out for TV viewing, so there had to be something interesting that wouldn't get cut -

Do they always cut stuff out for US TV viewers, because this wasn't a really long film any way?
