Dahlia (Marthe Keller) has concocted a plan with embittered ex-US POW in Vietnam, Lander (Bruce Dern) to explode a bomb full of metal darts from a Goodyear blimp above the crowded stadium...
Mossad in the tough form of Kabakov (Robert Shaw) are already on Dahlia's case though and seeking to discover her plan and stop her before it's too late with the help of Corley (Fritz Weaver) from the FBI. Kabakov also has to try to avoid being killed by the ruthless and deadly Dahlia beforehand...
A tense film. The film is quite long but this helps to show the intricate planning which needs to take place to carry out an atrocity of this scale as well as the dark psychology of terrorists who regard their own lives as expendable for the cause. A brutal and violent film, it's only let down slightly by some of the effects in the finale but the action overall is very well done indeed.
