| The tension is 100% in this very entertaining thrill ride starring Samuel L. Jackson and Kevin Spacey. Jackson is a Chicago Policeman who negotiates in hostage situations. He�s been framed by someone inside the force. The reason being money, of course. When Jackson feels there�s no other option, he takes a few hostages of his own and begins his quest to prove his innocence. Enter Spacey, who is another negotiator, but isn�t in the same group accusing Jackson of money scandals. It�s very fun to watch Jackson handle his own crew as they try to talk him down...he has the upper hand since he is also a professional. Spacey is as good as ever. He and Jackson aren�t in the same screen much, but they talk to one another for most of the entire movie. That�s entertaining enough. These top flight actors have done it again. You want suspense? You got it. |
