Weak

Rating: 5/10 (14 June 2004)

Dragged on forever in the beginning and was very heavy handed in getting across the building relationship between Washington and the girl. Further, how on earth denzel managed to wander around happily with three or four bullet wounds to the chest is beyond me. He was supposed to be out of action for a month and then proceeded to bound around knocking off mobsters and cops like there was no tomorrow. As a plus point, i found the bomb in the ass a very novel way to kill someone.
The action was on the whole disappointing and the film quibbled to an entirely unsatisfactory conclusion. Although Washington acted fairly well, he was hampered by the rubbish material he had to work with. Overall pretty poor stuff.
Poor Banter, Poor Chat. Banter.
