It is one of various Nu Image film productions released to capitalize on the popularity of blockbusters such as Broken Arrow, Executive Decision and several other mainstream blockbusters. It was followed by a similar film which contained many of the same actors such as Joe Lara and Frank Zagarino in different roles with 1998's Armstrong.
