Ok, but nobody's perfect.

Rating: Null/10 (10 May 2001)

This movie moves with an intense and incredible pace. In fact its so fast that you can't tell what's going on. Some of my favourate films are ones you have to see many times before you truly understand them, Blade Runner for example. Unfortunatly its not so with this film. If you see it more than once its just trying to understand the plot, not the feelings, unlike in the previously mentioned Blade Runner. Its not saying: what's the significance of this? The performances are also quoite good (especially Cruise's and Voight's), but the real reason why you should watch this film is its ending (or at least quite near its ending.) Towards the end Cruise is chased into a helicoppter which is bearing down on him (he's on the train's roof.) The two or three minutes as Cruise blows up the helichoppter with a piece of explosive chewing gum are fiercely intense and amazing! You should watch this film just for the sake of that scene. I know it sound terrible, but for those of you who don't like action there's the plot, the performances, the love interest, ect... The only problem with this film is the plot. 7/10
