Viewing Notes

Meh. I actually expected something marginally decent here, given the presence of Michael Douglas and Keifer Sutherland.

The plot points are so outlandishly ridiculous that they really took me out of the movie. If you can’t establish a bit of plausibility, you’re doing something wrong, given the subject matter.

Light fluff at best.
