A REAL actionmovie.

Rating: Null/10 (16 April 2000)

-Minor spoilers below-
This is what action is all about.
A bit original plot, a bit silly script. With raw violence and small amounts of humor. And the most important part: Extremely well made actionscenes. An example is just when the little girl listen to 'over the rainbow' while the killing is on max. The cinematic experience is cool. It's the same thing Kubrick did in A CLOCKWORK ORANGE. Mixing classic music with intense violence.
John Woo proves with FACE/OFF that he is one of the best action-directors ever and this movie reminds one of his foreign films.
This is the best actionmovie since TERMINATOR 2.
