This starts with a man chasing a woman and it's filmed in slow motion . Amazingly one of the names featured in the credits is Lee Majors who isn't actually either of the characters running in slow motion . This sets up the story that is equally slow motion . This is a pity because there's all sorts of potential in this TVM but of course being a TVM there's rules involved , as in no sex , violence , bad language , blasphemy or anything else that will alienate a family audience
It's a very bland tale where two criminals have an intricate if not implausible plan and they need a hostage and they've just lost their original hostage which means they need a plan B and low and behold a miracle happens because three nuns just happen to suffer a car breakdown on a remote desert highway . Obviously the Gods were on the side of the baddies at this point
Did I mention how bland this TVM was ? As I said it goes out of its way to offend absolutely no one . The victims are nuns but there is absolutely no reason why they should be nuns they could be some really hot cheerleaders and it would have not made the slightest piece of difference to the telling of the story except to perhaps manipulate the audience in to feeling sorry for them . There's no need because they're women held at gunpoint and that should be enough
