Buckle up for ride in the Black Moon, a sleek, high-tech supercar, powered by hydrogen and capable of speeds of over 300mph! Tommy Lee Jones stars as Sam Quint, a master thief working for the government who hides a computer disc loaded with evidence of corporate crime in a prototype supercar, the Black Moon. When a gang of thieves steal the car, Quint seduces their leader, Nina (Linda Hamilton), to get to the disc. But in order to reclaim his property, Quint and Nina must break into an impenetrable skyscraper and take down Ed Ryland (Robert Vaughn), the head of a dangerous stolen car syndicate. (Arrow Films)

There is an absence of logic or character motivation, and so this is a seriously flawed B-movie from the pen of John Carpenter. It could have at least tried to make up for its shortcomings with a dazzling dose of action and suspense. However, Black Moon Rising really lacks these things from today's perspective. The tired-looking Tommy Lee Jones (allegedly struggling with alcoholism during the filming) does not bring much to the table this time either. However, it is interesting to see where the makers of Furious 7 stole the scene of cars jumping between skyscrapers, which many raved about as an original idea.
