Man if there is one thing i love its a Denzel Washington movie. This man knows his craft and is normally responsible for making crappy written and directed pictures very watchable. Its rare that he actually gets to appear in a movie that is as strong as his performances. When it happens it normally means that he will get his hands on another lil shiney gold fella come 1st of the year. This movie is entertaining and fun, but Oscar worthy its not. Its entertainment and sometimes that can be just as good. Its your typical Bruckheimer movie as he has a nack of delivering us these smart popcorn action flicks. Tony Scott does a great job of directing and showing some much needed love to the New Orleans backdrop. Jimmy Caviezel delivers in his first big picture roll since playing Jesus. You get the feeling that maybe he is asking for a couple of bad guy roles at this point???? Anyhow the movie works on about 5 diffrent levels. The ones that it doesnt deliver on will be quickly forgoten as you leave because overall you will have seen a decent flick. Nothing life changing here but a great waste of 2 hours.
ILL GIVE IT 3 ROLLOS
