Original Title:

Gridlock

In a low-budgeter that steals its storyline from Die Hard 3, the completely charisma-free David Hasselhoff is a chopper copper who does things his own way, and he’s in the air when all the bridges and tunnels to Manhattan are destroyed as a distraction for a scheme to rob the Federal Gold Reserve. Hasselhoff’s girlfriend (Kathy Ireland) is a tour guide in the bank, so Dave has to go in and tackle the baddies on his own. Amazingly unspectacular, with an all-cliché script.

Hilariously bad.
