Movie Review by B Movie Ben
April 15th, 2007

9/11 aftermath predicted in this film.

Like I said, 1998 was not a good year for Bruce. He won a Razzie for worst actor for this film, along with Mercury Rising and Armageddon. That should not mean that it is a total loss as it has Denzel Washington, Tony Shaloub and Annette Bening, in addition to Willis.

Of course, people find this movie much more believable today in light of the current administration's actions regarding torture and rendition, and the suspension of our rights under the Patriot Act. It probably seemed far-fetched in 1998.

Denzel Washington was great as a caring FBI agent, and Tony Shalaub is always good, in my opinion, and was excellent here.

Check it out for no other reason that it's future view.
