Gale Force is a 2002 action thriller starring Treat Williams and co-starring Michael Dudikoff, Curtis Armstrong, Susan Walters, Tim Thomerson, Marcia Strassman, and many more.

Renegade L.A. detective Sam (Williams) takes a role as a cast member in a reality TV show where he leads a quartet trying to find ten million dollars in buried cash.

And Jared is successful: Thanks to a corrupt producer, the renegade mercenaries find the cache of cash and start off with it, but Sam and his intrepid, unarmed teammates interrupt them before they can depart.

[2] Reviewer Scott Hettrick of the Sun-Sentinel said the film "gets off to a rousing start with an impressively staged car chase... the best part of the movie.

After that, it's back to the low-budget look and patched-together feel that is typical of the movies of director Jim Wynorski... should provide modest entertainment, as long as expectations aren't too high.
