Indianapolis, 1977. Ruiné par une faillite immobilière, Tony Kiritsis prend en otage Richard Hall, le courtier qu’il tient responsable de tous ses malheurs. L'entrepreneur lie autour du cou de sa victime un fil métallique attaché à un fusil de chasse, lequel fera feu si la police tente d'intervenir. L’incident attire l’attention des médias, puis la faveur de l'opinion publique américaine, alors que le kidnappeur exige une énorme somme d’argent et une excuse publique du grand patron de la Meridian Mortgage Company. Alors que la prise d’otage se transforme en un gigantesque cirque médiatique, Kiritsis perd lentement mais sûrement le contrôle de la situation.

A decent true-story movie with solid performances, but I was never fully invested. The ending caught me off guard, but a good chunk of the movie felt like a whole lot of nothing was happening. Visually, it does the job, and nobody in the cast was bad, but nothing really stood out either. Okay overall, but I would not really watch it again.
The premise is more exciting than the movie. It plodded along for 30+ minutes and we gave up. Acting was poor and the story-telling was dull. It's a really bad "B" movie. In the old days this would have gone straight to the bargain bin the day after it was released. 1/10
