Great film!
I saw this for the second time yesterday and realized that it's quite a great film! The first time i thought it was OK. But now i think the movie is awesome!!!:-)
"No, I shot him. Bullets and the fall killed him!"
Vincent, Collateral
It`s ok, mainly because of the three main actors. They make it work, but it`s fairly good as a thriller also.
shareI just remember that Charlie Sheen described the movie as 'Dogsh*t' when it was released - I wouldn't disagree.
'Everyone is your friend, until the rent is due'
Parts of this movie work for me, but alot of the action scenes didn't feel well done.
shareIts the kind of movie that the screenwriter and director should be missing off their resume...
Charlie Sheen was badly cast, he is never taken seriously in a movie, and donald sutherland must have been short of some change to do this movie...
The Whitehouse incident was a mockery.. Sheens character overpowers a Secret Service agent in a lift?!?!.... to that end a Secret Service agent shooting wildly INSIDE the Whitehouse!?!?!... aren't they trained to shoot as an absolute last resort and also they are meant to be some of the best yet it a joke... And their escape, out the bottom of the lift, into a tunnel that led to an UNLOCKED grid out in the street?!?!... Even pre-911 I am assuming security was far better than this...
And when they had to find her car... the tech guy complained he would need to move several sats etc, yet it took about 15 minutes to locate her car precisely AND get a visual on the licence (unlikely from satelite)...
I know movies stretch the truth, we all know that, but this movie just took the p**s a little to much... artistic licence aside, the screenwriter clearly hoped the audience would be uneducated monkeys!!
Totally awful movie, COULD have been very good but the same thing has been done far better than this..
Sheen... stick to Two and a Half Men!!!
