Viewing Notes

Heard this was fullscreen on Instawatch… WRONG. Ugh, I put off watching this in hopes of getting a better presentation but decided to fire this up anyways and it looks great.

One of those movies that I always thought I had seen but in truth have probably only seen clips. Pretty damn good film even when it’s ridiculous. Powers Boothe is good villain. Another film in which JCVD is the “regular man” well as regular as a fireman w/fighting skills can be.

The hockey scenes are shot incredibly well and have me wanting to see a legit hockey flick. I heard tell of this getting a release on blu in the near future. I may pick it up if it has a Hyams commentary.
