About The Big Story
Two small-time thugs kidnap a senator's daughter. The ransom: a secret isotope the U.S. government developed as a black project. Soon the first thugs run afoul of a gang of international terrorists who capture the isotope, the first pair of thugs, the senator's daughter, a bevy of beautiful government agents and a brace of superheroines. Can a lone operative rescue the kidnapped ladies before they all come to grief?
Directed by Jon Woods, The Big Story leans on a strong ensemble — Kelsie Chambers, Andrea Neal, Shannan Leigh — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 1999.
