Bruce Willis is playing - what else - a burned out and psychologically bruised cop. And the whole world is against him. But then. against all odds....and reason....he will be - guess what?....Victorious!
There is sex in it! Abducted love interest! Corrupt cops! Car chases! Boat chases! Fist-fights! Spectacular shootouts! Sexy single mom longing for her child she had to leave behind to fulfill her duties! Deception and forgiveness! Crazed murderer! Insane moral dilemmas! But wait, there is more! Or is there? Can you think of more clichés?
......who am I kidding? Five minutes after I finished watching it, I already forgot the title. I had to look it up in the TV guide. It is THAT forgettable. If you want to watch crap, it's OK. Just find some better crap than this one. There is plenty out there.
