Counter Measures is a suspenseful action thriller from 1998 directed by Fred Olen Ray. It stars the popular actor Michael Dudikoff in the lead role, supported by James Horan, Alexander Keith, and Scott Marlowe. Set in post-Cold War America, the movie revolves around a group of ex-CIA operatives who form a private espionage firm to combat threats to national security that the government can't handle.

Dudikoff plays the charismatic and suave Jack, who heads the team of counter-intelligence experts. James Horan plays Frank, a computer expert who is a bit of a misfit in the group. Alexander Keith portrays Sam, the explosives expert who doesn't trust anyone easily. Scott Marlowe plays Travis, a former FBI agent who is recruited to the team.

The story begins with the team receiving a call from a wealthy businessman named Sullivan, played by John Ryan. Sullivan believes that there is a mole in his company who is leaking sensitive information to his competitors. He hires the team to find out who the mole is and stop him.

The team quickly discovers that things are not as simple as they seem. The mole is part of a larger conspiracy involving illegal arms sales to foreign countries. The team must use all their skills, wits, and resources to uncover the truth and stop the villains from carrying out their nefarious plans.

The action scenes in the movie are well-choreographed and keep the audience on the edge of their seats. The gunfights, car chases, and explosions are all top-notch and add to the excitement of the movie. The movie also has a good mix of humor and drama, with the banter between the team members providing some comic relief.

The chemistry between Dudikoff and Horan is particularly amusing, with Jack being the smooth-talking ladies' man who constantly teases and taunts Frank, who is awkward around women. Alexander Keith's portrayal of Sam is also noteworthy, as he brings a tough-guy attitude to the role but also shows a softer side in his interactions with his teammates.

The movie also has some interesting twists and turns that keep the audience guessing until the end. The motives of the villains are not always clear, and there are a few surprises along the way that add to the suspense.

Overall, Counter Measures is an entertaining action thriller that will appeal to fans of the genre. Michael Dudikoff delivers a solid performance as the leader of the team, and the supporting cast all do a good job in their respective roles. The movie may not be groundbreaking or particularly original, but it is a well-made and enjoyable film that delivers plenty of thrills and excitement.

Counter Measures is a 1999 action movie with a runtime of 1 hour and 33 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 4.1.
