Fantastic movie!!

Rating: 10/10 (5 August 2004)

I actually registered today just so I could put in something positive about this movie, as there seems to be to many people judging it as a potential 'movie of the century'. It's an action movie...
Yes the movie can be a little cheesy at times, and probably has a few to many action movie clichés and I have no idea what Christopher Walken is doing with his hair. But for what the movie was trying to be I thought it was great. Tony Scott was obviously trying to go for something different with the types of camera shots and the subtitles which I thought were very effective. Whilst Denzel played one of his greatest roles since Training Day, the other actors failed to deliver, but who cares? It's an awesome action movie, judging the acting would be similar to judging Stallones performance in the Rocky movies. It's not relevant.
The movie is extremely entertaining, and if you like a good action movie you'll love this. If you want to compare it with Schindlers list or Gone With the Wind, then go see something else.
