Keanu Reeves wants to create a power plant that runs off hydrogen extracted from water. The process involves using a laser beam and sound waves to induce sonoluminescence. Someone wants to stop this research and blows up his lab. He goes on the run and runs away from a lot of explosions.

Tropes used in Chain Reaction (film) include:
  • Can't Stop the Signal: The good guy releases to the world the details of the machine allowing production of functionally unlimited energy by faxing it to news offices everywhere.
  • Outrun the Fireball: The protagonist arrives at the laboratory to find his boss murdered and the equipment rigged to blow up. Unable to stop the chain reaction, he straddles his bike and speeds away from the lab. When the equipment finally overloads, it explodes in a very large fireball, almost akin to a small nuclear blast. Eddie manages to Outrun the Fireball just barely; the back of his bike is actually lifted by the shockwave (but the forward wheel somehow remains on the ground).
