Wanted: Dead Or Alive. 1987.

Rutger Hauer plays the bounty Hunter Nick Randall hired to find terrorist Gene Simmons who enjoys blowing up buildings and has to play cat and mouse with Simmons and the other agents on the trail.

Director Gary Sherman manages to keep this on a great steady pace, right from the start with Hauer heading to a bar and finding his is target and taking a no nonsense approach in a convienant store. Simmons who doesn't take much screen time certainly gives it his all with the game play and leaving his mark and proving he is the bomber and taking credit before anyone else does. I always saw this film as a great action but after 20 years of not seeing it, this feels like it's more of a thriller type of movie, either way it's still one of Rutger's best films.
