Rating: 10/10 (5 April 2013)

The second adaptation of A. J. Quinnell's 1980 novel of the same name, Late Filmmaker Tony Scott's 'Man on Fire' is Tough As Hell! A Bad-Ass, Hardcore Flick that is worth your time.
'Man on Fire' Synopsis: In Mexico City, a former assassin swears vengeance on those who committed an unspeakable act against the family he was hired to protect.
'Man on Fire' has a gripping Screenplay Written by Brian Helgeland. It has terrific pacing & interesting twists incepted nicely in the goings-on. Tony Scott was a genius & 'Man on Fire' proves that right, once again. Paul Cameron's Cinematography has grit, while The Editing by Christian Wagner, has clarity.
Performance-Wise: Denzel Washington can never be doubted. He pitches in a fine performance, as always. Dakota Fanning is top-notch. Radha Mitchell & Marc Anthony are natural. The Terrific Christopher Walken leaves a mark. Giancarlo Giannini is adequate.
On the whole, 'Man on Fire' hits all the right notes.
