5.5 for this movie is way to low, i´d say a 7 would be a fair rating. because It´s a diffrent kind of Undercover-cop/mafia movie without the stereotype characters. Liam Nesson does a great job. What do you guys think about rating?
shareAgreed. When a movie of this caliber has the same rating as Bobby Deerfield something is wrong. This movie is way better than that.
shareWell, I gave it a 10. It's definitely one of my favourite movies, exactly because it's a different kind of undercover-cop/mafia movie without the stereotype characters.

I am a HUGE Sandra Bullock fan,
and I gave this movie a 4.0.
I don't know why she would produce a film with her Fortis film company
that is basically one long string of bathroom humor.
It surprises me to see her stooping so low - no pun intended.
This is certainly not one of her better efforts.
There are some redeeming qualities, to be sure.
Without giving anything away,
it is also a love story and a story of redemption and transformation.
That's the only reason I didn't rate it lower.
But I probably won't watch it twice.
Sandy has far too many far better movies
I'd rather re-watch.
My sister and her husband had the same expectation for a Sandra Bullock film.
Some don't want to see her in any other kind of role.
I enjoyed this movie a great deal.
Too much, too soon, too long, too strong, too many,
to fix.
While I agree she has done better acting, I think this movie is very underrated. Recommend you see it again, as she plays a very strong character, Liam is fantastic, all the cast were superb, and the story is a light rom-com that delivers reasonably well on all points.
Bathroom humor? I'm assuming you're referring to his Gastro issue. This is a character device that tells the audience when Charlie is afraid. It serves the story, rather than trying to make the audience giggle. In fact, its absolutely necessary, given that Charlie is always putting up a confident front. How else are we supposed to know that Charlie, in that moment, is frightened? His job is to not appear frightened.
This lends to the credibility of Charlie's character. I'm not saying the movie is a marvelous work of art...just a nice, solid 8/10 and a fun way to pass a few hours on a Saturday.
What bathroom humor?The movie is about the problems caused by stress among other things.
Great movie
So unique
Agreed
Love this movie it's at least an 8
