But its actress, and we use the word advisedly her here, Jenna B Kelly as Logan, one of Jack’s sidekicks that brings things to a crashing halt.
THE PRECIOUS CARGO TRAILER TV
Gosselaar, who has all the presence of a US TV actor, bears a resemblance to Hugh Jackman but is perfectly adequate in the lead role. With piercing almond shaped eyes that lend itself to the glamour puss roles she used to play but have given way to her age where she is ideally cast. Willis as might be expected is confidently conniving as he breezes through a role which normally has him as the good guy so it makes a change to see him being bad although he does have an unsavoury scene where he threatens the pregnant Forlani who is a strikingly steely eyed in her best role in years. It’s all very formulaic and includes those staple action lines, ‘Let’s rock n roll!’ (never hear that line in a mountaineering movie) and the increasingly favoured, ‘Look alive, people!’ a line which you rarely hear in zombie films and the plot plays like a first draft version of a Jeff Abbot novel. Inevitably Jack agrees and with his own crew they carry out the heist knowing that it’s yet another job that Willis and his gang were planning too. Having given the police the slip and now in debt to the murderous Eddie she approaches her ex husband Jack to help with a diamond heist so that she can pay back the debt and start a new life. A pretty unlikely outcome seeing as he’s also called the police too.

After a Guy Ritchie-lite title sequence it picks up with Clare Forlani as Karen a pregnant criminal in the middle of a back robbery taking a phone call from Willis’s Eddie, a local crime lord, who’s miffed that she’s doing a job that he had planned and demands all the proceeds.

‘Precious Cargo is not going to reinvigorate the genre for him and despite being the only household name in the film he plays second billing to Mark-Paul Gosselaar (no, me neither) as Jack. With the unholy trinity of Eighties action stars scrabbling for relevance (Schwarzenegger’s return to films has been less than stellar whereas Stallone’s has return to Rocky has earned him another Oscar nomination) it’s left to Willis to hold the torch and his pedigree has been patchy with only the ‘Die Hard’ franchise still going though increasingly tarnished by each subsequent film.
