Trivia:
Release prints were delivered to theaters with the fake title 'Sand Trap' moreGoofs:
Continuity: Reports after the attack on the Western compound indicate the ambulance bomb was detonated one hour after the first attack at the softball game. This is unlikely given the complete darkness when the ambulance blows up compared to the broad daylight in which the attack at the softball game occurred. moreQuotes:

When a devastating terrorist attack occurs in Saudi Arabia resulting in the death of an American federal agent and several civilians, the FBI is reluctant to conduct their own investigation for fear of severing international relations with an uncooperative Saudi government. Foxx is the head of the bureau's Rapid Action team. Accompanied by fellow agents Cooper (an explosives expert), and Garner (a forensic specialist), he leads an "unofficial" expedition to the site to try and seek out the guilty party. Political thriller has a realistic setup and three capable leads, but unfortunately the film rambles, and reduces itself to a revenge flick on its way to an action-packed climax that feels desperately contrived. The story is interesting but never convincing, especially the ending which is hollow and sentimental. **
