Customer Ratings & Reviews

3 of 5 stars for this action movie. The movie opens with a child kidnapping and a chase of the kidnapper (Lucy Liu). Later an expert (Antonio Banderas) is brought-in to find the kid and get the kidnapper. The bulk of the movie is a cat-and-mouse between these two. OK, let me explain that cat-and-mouse in this case means massive explosions, vast amounts of ammo expended, lots of cars and stuff blown-up. Lots and lots of action and explosions and shooting! Later in the movie certain character connections are exposed and relations change, the cat-and-mouse team-up to go after the real bad-guy in the movie. Oh, add lots more action and explosions including most of a train yard getting blown-up. So why three stars? Well, usually I really like Liu and Banderas. In this movie, both characters were really thin and hard to connect with. In fact, in the whole movie every character is thin/shallow and not likeable. Heck, even the kidnapped kid had no personality. So, if you are into characters, this ain't your movie. If you want an easy on your brain blow-it-up/shoot-it-up movie, this is for you!

If you have seen every action movie out there and haven't seen this one, it's worth it. For the price it is a definite good time. The movie kept a good pase for an action movie, but failed to really set itself apart from any other movie. But if you've seen it all this movie is for you. I added it to my collection.
