Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times [Blown Away] is the kind of movie that people should be sentenced to see if they complain that Speed is implausible. Rated: 2/4 Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Marc Savlov Austin Chronicle Rated: 3/5 Jan 1, 2000 Full Review Entertainment Weekly Rated: C+ Jul 1, 1994 Full Review Matt Brunson Film Frenzy It’s impossible to take this seriously, even with “The Troubles” informing the tale. Rated: 2/4 Aug 1, 2024 Full Review Steven Alan McGaw Texas Triangle/TXT The movie's quieter moments... give audiences the time to ponder the film's almost ludicrous, contrived plot. May 8, 2023 Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews ...engrossing subject matter that’s employed to mostly first-class effect by Hopkins... Rated: 3.5/4 Oct 20, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

Tommy lee jones and jeff bridges star in this prestperous and predictable plotted movies but it's also interesting to watch a good vs evil film that is not oscar worthy and is filled with it's lots of cheesy one liners.
