Action For Imbeciles

Rating: 2/10 (14 November 2004)

This movie is a prime example of the level of idiocy the Hollywood action movie has reached at the turn of the century. A ten-year old could make a more believable (and therefore more compelling) movie than this. How can people get caught up in the action sequences when they have no connection with simple laws of physics or causality? How can you think the hero is in jeopardy when he is beyond superhuman? Compared to this lunacy of a movie, the Connery Bond films were docudramas.
I suppose if this had been tongue-in-cheek it would have been more tolerable, but Tom Cruise & Co. obviously expected the audience to take this garbage SERIOUSLY.
I am glad to say the film studio didn't make a penny off me for this movie.
