Kind of fun, but not much in the end. Some ggod work in the supporting cast.

| Leonard Maltin/Plot synopsis: |
Crusading military research medico Hoffman identifies a deadly virus that's somehow made its way from Africa to the U. S. Now he has to race against the clock to stop it from spreading--little dreaming that his Army superiors have an agenda of their own. Dynamite suspense thriller with a surprising sense of humor goes almost completely awry in the second half, turning Hoffman into a kind of superhero and everyone else into a caricature or stick figure. What a shame! J. T. Walsh appears unbilled.
