What happens

Hollow Point is a 1996 Canadian-American action thriller film directed by Sidney J. Furie and starring Thomas Ian Griffith, Tia Carrere, John Lithgow and Donald Sutherland. In this darkly comedic tale, Griffith and Carrere star as members of rival law enforcement agencies, who are both after a group of criminals connected by their cynical accountant (Lithgow) and their former hitman (Sutherland). Sometimes considered to be the best of Furie's late career, the film was tarnished by the accidental death of a crew member during a botched pyrotechnics sequence. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
