Probably not a film that could still be made today (in Hollywood). Take a conspiracy theorist and make his theory a reality, that's not a message they want to sell in the US right now. Other than that, this was a pretty basic action thriller. A few twists, a couple of familiar faces, and that's that.
Donner could've done more with it, but he didn't seem that inspired. Roberts and Gibson are a bland pairing (especially Gibson is a bit iffy here), the film is too long and Stewart is a poor baddie. The film is still somewhat amusing and taken as a simple blockbuster there's some fun to be had, but you must be a pretty big 90s fan to get excited about this.
