In fact, a video release is where Split Second seems more at home – a cinema release would over-stretch the small charms it does have as a mindless low expectation action film with a self-mocking sense of humour. Upon its release, Split Second was given a perhaps over-the-top but almost universal deriding by the few critics who saw it in cinemas and was consigned to the video shelves only about a month after its cinema premiere. However, stories of director Tony Maylam quitting/being fired towards the end of production and the shooting of a new ending by Ian Sharp led to poor advance word. This low-budget British production was briefly touted as Britain’s new hope in the science-fiction stakes.
