How/why in the hell did so many people rate this so highly? I watched it for that sole reason, and now I wish I could get my time back. The opening scene was raw and intriguing, but evvvvverything after that was as lame & cheesy as a movie can be. It wasn't even worth "one viewing" to me. It flat-out SUCKED. It's like 'Die Hard' meets 'Home Alone', BUT WORSE. Now I need to go find a GOOD movie to forget about the time I just wasted on this nonsense...

The last time you see Bruce being Bruce while he reaches the age in which you may not want to see Bruce get any older and still kicking ass. Ben Foster is Ben Foster and plays the villain with his shocking and unknowingly shock factor form that is one of a kind.

Bruce Willis has a lot of great movies but this is by far my favorite. Awesome acting and a great suspenseful story.
