Com sua cena de sexo cafona, seus dilogos patticos, seus efeitos trash e seu roteiro absurdo, quase acaba servindo como diverso involuntria. Quase.

🎬 Crítica | O Detonador em Alta Voltagem Antes de vestir o terno impecável de James Bond, Pierce Brosnan já demonstrava sinais claros de que possuía o perfil ideal para protagonizar filmes de ação e suspense. Em Live Wire, lançado em 1992, com 85 minutos de duração, vemos um thriller policial que mistura investigação, tensão e conspirações explosivas — literalmente. ⭐ Nota final: 6 / 10

It is a mess with a ridiculous plot. Only the stars bring anything fun to it.

Illogical and just plain stupid, Live Wire may be very dumb, but it's audiences will get a laugh out of the film's utter stupidity.
