Make it stop!

Rating: 5/10 (2 February 2003)

Excellent performances are marred by an over the top script...you know, had this been toned down a bit, it would've been an excellent movie. At first I didnt buy Hawke as a cop, but he pulled it off quite nicely, and Denzel is always wonderful. But note that any movie that has someone falling on the hood/windshield of a getaway car is almost always guilty of using a bad plot device - "the butler did it" is less cliched.
Tone down Denzel's badness, and this would have had a few more days in the sun.
