Nettles and Fuzzy are narcotics cops. Nettles is a cop on the edge. His wife and son were killed by a bomb. Ever since then, he has lost his enthusiasm for his job, hygiene, and life in general. When the two are dispatched to a crime scene where Irish mad bomber Alex Swann (Dennis Hopper) and his gang are hiding; Fuzzy ends up getting killed and one of the gang, scientist Claire (Jaime Pressly) is arrested.

Black Dude Dies First | |
Ticker / int_9788e2b1 | comment |
Black Dude Dies First: Not counting the flashback at the beginning, which has very little bearing on the rest of the plot, Fuzzy is the first named character to die. | |

Bomb Disposal | |
Ticker / int_cf479cd8 | comment |
Bomb Disposal: The main theme of the film. It gets discussed early on by Nettles and Glass, as the former accuses the bomb disposal squad of being content to sit on their asses and let people get blown up, while the latter points out that finding the bombs is the job of the detectives, and that the disposal squad can't actually do anything until it's found. | |

Ticker / int_eeb4a5eb | comment |
Anti-Climax: Ends with Nettles and Glass placidly defusing two bombs whilst mumbling to each other in hushed tones, succeeding, and then strolling about in the night by what appears to be some big stadium. | |
