Plot
A German scientist helps a Soviet general construct two nuclear bombs, one of which is being transported across Europe by a mercenary on a train. Malcolm Philpott (Stewart), a member of UNACO, (United Nations Anti-Crime Organisation), is tasked with stopping the bomb using a team of agents, one of whom is Special Forces soldier Michael "Mike" Graham (Brosnan).
Plutonium was stolen in order to make the bombs, and the only person who knows the combination to disarm them has been subjected to a vast amount of radiation and is slowly dying.

“There comes a time in every man’s education when he arrives at the conviction that envy is ignorance; that imitation is suicide; that he must take himself for better for worse as his portion; that though the wide universe is full of good, no kernel of nourishing corn can come to him but through his toil bestowed on that plot of ground which is given him to till.”
