“I must say this film was better than your average thriller to me. Call me stupid, thatu0026#39;s just fine, but I didnu0026#39;t see the ending coming at all. Of course, it didnu0026#39;t hurt the filmu0026#39;s stature to have Morgan Freeman back in the lead role, the guy doesnu0026#39;t seem to be able to make a bad film and is one of the most underappreciated actors of his time. Also, Michael Wincott is one hell of a great villain, as he has proved time and time again in The Crow and Robin Hood: Prince Of Thieves, as well as this film. Monica Potter is indeed Julia Robertu0026#39;s clone, and thatu0026#39;s not good in my eyes. I cannot stand Julia Roberts or any movie she has ever been in (I actually WATCHED My Best Friendu0026#39;s Wedding with my girlfriend in the theaters, and it was so bad even she couldnu0026#39;t watch it). All in all, I highly recommend this film as a modern day thriller. Yes, it has a few holes and gets bogged down a bit in the middle, but Freeman as always is a delight to watch and the film is about as good a thriller as youu0026#39;ll find in modern times. Thatu0026#39;s just one guyu0026#39;s opinion.”
