Hard-drinking, burnt-out ex-CIA operative John Creasy (Denzel Washington) has given up on life--until his friend Rayburn (Academy Award winner Christopher Walken) gets him a job as a bodyguard to nine-year-old Pita Ramos (Dakota Fanning). Bit by bit, Creasy begins to reclaim his soul, but when Pita is kidnapped, Creasy unleashes a firestorm of apocalyptic vengeance against everyone responsible.

Reviews

Keith & the Movies

Keith Garlington

Rotten

At almost two-and-a-half hours the film really needs more meat on its bones.

This is a merely average film that had much more potential.

Washington has chosen wisely, and he hasn't had to wait long.

Rotten

Scott's latest exercise in assaultive excess nevertheless lingers for two and a half hours, like a drunken houseguest who won't leave.

La Nación (Argentina)

Rotten

A film that ends up being tedious due to its excessive duration, annoying by its formal lack of control. [Full Review in Spanish]
