Don't forget the deleted scenes...

Rating: 7/10 (24 March 2005)

Creasy (Washington) needs to do something in order to forget his past. Rayburn (Walken), a friend who lives in Mexico, fixes him a job at a wealthy man (Marc Anthony): protect his little girl Lupita(Fanning). Creasy and Pita don't get along at first, but develop a bond. One day, she gets kidnapped. Denzel is superb as usual. Washington really looks like the hard@$$ Creasy is in my mind. Dakota Fanning is perfect as the funny Pita, who kinda reminds me of Gollem from the LotR-trilogy.
I at first didn't understand the ending. Why didn't he take the big guy out? I didn't understand. Then I saw the deleted scenes on the DVD. Turns out Creasy has a little present tucked under his shirt. Guess what: he takes the leader out with a bang, no pun intended.
According to me, the movie could've taken a bit more time. I thought Creasy and Pita became friends too fast and I'd love to see Creasy kill more people. I mean... with his imagination... he could do lots of funny things.
