Searching for the most vitriolic of terms...

Rating: 2/10 (5 December 2002)

You know, this guy is crafty, I'll give him that. He's technically a good filmmaker. But honestly, folks... He's the biggest case of the emporor's new trousers I've seen in a long time. I really hated this film, and the Bruce Willis one before it... egads. The thing I hated the most about this film was the really syrupy religious smarm that gets dumped in your lap right at the end. I literally groaned.
And Mel Gibson... dont' get me started. Let's just say he should have stuck with Lethal Weapon.
I like Joaquin Phoenix a lot, but after Clay Pigeons (a damn-near perfect film), I was bummed to see him in such garbage.
Oh the pain...
