Look, nobody's ever going to confuse Tony Scott with (insert revered classic director here), but the man is the best at what he does - creating entertaining popcorn action films and occasionally rising toward something more (Man on Fire, Deja Vu). This one never hits those heights, but it's still an entertaining film with some very good individual performances.

Typically slick action drama from the Don Simpson/Jerry Bruckheimer factory and director Tony Scott. Strong performances and top-notch production values can't make up for a predictable and generic story - for all the tight close-ups and pulse-pounding Hans Zimmer score, the suspense feels processed and just never really works. Not a terrible film, but not particularly memorable.
