A really rather derivative action thriller held together by a couple of decent, though entirely predictable, performances from Jeff Bridges and a rather off-form Tommy Lee Jones, The latter is an Irish bomber who has escaped from prison bent on revenging himself on Bridges - a Boston bomb disposal expert. It's got all the usual convoluted ploys as people around the target start to get bumped off, the family get threatened and we have a denouement straight from the ABC book of action thrillers...
With such top actors you would think this would be a brilliant movie. But what a dissapointment! Didn't last 10min, sorry. Story was very weak and there is no excuse with movies like "Speed" and "The Taking of Pelham 123". Think this film relied too heavily on the actors and thought that was enough.
