Disappointment

Rating: Null/10 (16 December 2001)

I had not heard much of this movie but the storyline, so my expectations weren't that high. But I have to say that I was really disappointed! About 70% of the movie all you saw was Denzel and Ethan sitting in the car talking, not much of an action movie. I am not kidding when I say the guy next to me was actually sleeping most of the time, and I was close to nodding off too. Ethan was not very believable as "the tough cop" in the end, but Denzel was quite good. The film would have been better without the loads of talking, I think people got the hang of the problem within the first 10 minutes of the movie. No need for all that talking. If they cut it all out the film would last about 15 minutes! A lot of "stars" was in it, but they didn't really have much to give or say...the director could have made it more interesting if he had focused more on the environment than just the "problem".
