"An undercover cop investigates on a seemingly innocent cinema owner who is part of a criminal conspiray, but as he does he grows fond of his wife and her young boy. The film is all too simple and sometimes feels an overstretched suit for the famous scene of the kid carrying the package containing the bomb. John Loden is impressive, and the photography adds to the aesthetic value of the film. Sabotae also contains a small animated piece signed Walt Disney."
