Scientist, Buck Hogan (Henry Thomas) is working on a breakthrough in Nano-technology for treating / eradicating cancer. When he finds a catastrophic flaw in the project, he does the sensible thing and tells his boss (Brion James) who ignores him.
Hogan quickly finds himself facing a series of terrifying events, including unnecessary surgery, and the implantation into his body of his own personal doomsday device.
One problem with BOMBSHELL is its silly "futuristic" setting. From the fashions to the cars it's all hyper-colorful cheeeze. This is an unintentionally humorous distraction and a shame, since the basic story isn't bad and could have easily been set in contemporary times.
Another annoyance is the utterly non-threatening villain. He's pretty pathetic, especially when he gets all "vulnerable".
Ugh!
Co-stars Madchen Amick and Shawnee Smith...
