Simply Boring

Rating: 4/10 (5 January 2013)

The movie started out great! Witty, entertaining and had you on the edge of your seat. The entire plane scene was excellent from the action and acting to the photography. Sadly, it was all downhill from there. While Denzel's performance was good, it was unoriginal. As an alcoholic, Nicolas Cage did a far better job in "Leaving Las Vegas" than Denzel. The character of Nicole went no where ... Her storyline never materialized. Basically, Nicole's character appeared to be an afterthought that got interrupted mid thought. The best part of the movie was John Goodman - two brief appearances that were highly amusing and added some life to a coma-esque movie. Still confused as to what all the hype is about!
