A police officer who caused millions of pounds worth of damage to a building in 1996 is cryogenically frozen as a punishment until his parole deep into the 21st century. When he emerges from his suspended state he finds a different world awaiting him but also the same criminal who caused his arrest in the first place.

Average action caper with two of Hollywood's biggest box-office draws of the day. The film is saved (just about) with some comical black humour along the way.
