This is a fantastic thrill-ride that is very interesting. I thought Bruce Willis was great but it seemed he wasn't as into it as he was in the Die Hard series. I thought the plot was great because it was really cool to see action on the sea and on different boats. The mystery that was involved made it a totally different kind of action plot. I thought it gave the movie a better thrust to it. I am a big Tom Sizemore fan and I really thought he was really great in it. Overall, I think this movie was great and I recommend it to all viewers who like Bruce Willis movies.
