Ignition (2001) US Marshal with-a-past-and-a-gruff-exterior-that-masks-a-heart-that-just-loves-his-daughter-whom-he-is-not-allowed-to-see-and-an-‘I don’t care’-attitude-but-he-does-really Conor Gallagher is given ‘one last chance’ and assigned to serve as bodyguard to Judge Faith Mattis who has been the target of a mad bomber-type. The two don’t see eye-to-eye straight away and the Judge’s current high-profile military fraud case is causing complications but when Gallagher saves her life, it engenders a spirit of trust that she never expected. 6/10 While it appears nobody could be bothered during the climax (actors, scriptwriter and the visual effects team seem entirely disinterested) the remainder of this thriller is entertaining and professionally assembled despite containing generous helpings of American thriller cliché. This movie contains sexual swear words and substance abuse and graphic violence and sensuality, female nudity.
