"One of the 50 Coolest Websites...they simply tell it like it is" - TIME

The Pandora Project | 1998 | R | - 2.6.6

Daniel Baldwin is the only CIA agent skilled enough to retrieve a deadly radioactive bomb that his equally-crafty former partner stole from the government. Erika Eleniak, Richard Tyson, Tony Todd, Jeff Yagher, Bo Jackson and Robert Hegyes co-star.

SEX/NUDITY 2 - Sexual innuendo (including a reference to homosexuality). Several passionate kisses (in one scene, a man kisses a woman's clothed stomach and she moans pleasurably). A woman in her bra and underwear kisses a man's neck and cheek.

VIOLENCE/GORE 6 - Lots of threatening with guns and knives, lots of shoot-outs; lots of people are shot and stabbed (we see several bloody corpses and several bloody wounds). One man is strangled and we see and hear a man's neck being snapped by another man. Two buildings and a plane explode. A radioactive bomb goes off in a populated town and we see many corpses lying on the ground (there's no blood, but we do hear flies buzzing around the corpses). The bomb is used three other times, killing several people and two dogs. A man grabs onto a moving truck; he bashes the driver's head into the steering wheel and eventually falls off the truck (but he's not injured). There are several fights involving kicks and punches; during one extended fight scene, a man is thrown over a railing and knocked unconscious. A few scuffles. A man slaps a woman.

LANGUAGE 6 - About 5 F-words and one F-word derivative, many anatomical references, several scatological references and lots of mild obscenities and insults.

DISCUSSION TOPICS - The CIA, the military, undercover operations, crime organizations, betrayal, bombs.

MESSAGE - It doesn't pay to double-cross the CIA.

CAVEATS

Be aware that while we do our best to avoid spoilers it is impossible to disguise all details and some may reveal crucial plot elements.

We've gone through several editorial changes since we started covering films in 1992 and older reviews are not as complete & accurate as recent ones; we plan to revisit and correct older reviews as resources and time permits.

Our ratings and reviews are based on the theatrically-released versions of films; on video there are often Unrated, Special, Director's Cut or Extended versions, (usually accurately labelled but sometimes mislabeled) released that contain additional content, which we did not review.
