This
action-adventure, that features a terrorist plot from
The Fugitive (1993), saw its October 2001 release date moved back four months as a result of real-life terrorist attacks on the United States.
Arnold Schwarzenegger stars as
Gordon Brewer, a Los Angeles firefighter who witnesses the deaths of his wife and child, innocent victims of a terrorist attack on a motorcade carrying Colombian dignitaries. Responsibility for the deadly explosion belongs to
Claudio "The Wolf" Perrini (
Cliff Curtis), a terrorist and rebel in Colombia's decade-long civil war. When times passes with no suspect being brought to justice,
Brewer rejects the advice of FBI agent
Peter Brandt (
Elias Koteas) and travels to the jungles of Colombia to find and take revenge upon his family's murderer himself. Encountering a complex web of death squads, right-wing military officials, guerrillas, terrorists and drug-lords,
Brewer is aided in his dangerous quest by an unlikely ally, the beautiful
Selena Perrini (
Francesca Neri), his quarry's wife.
Collateral Damage (2002) co-stars
John Leguizamo and
John Turturro.
