"Critics were hard on this one. I'm big on Bruce Willis, and I enjoyed this movie. Granted, he has a large roster of top films that I wouldn't include this movie in, but still come on man.. it's Bruce Willis, and I'd rather enjoy some of his critically panned movies that some of the current A-listers hits."

"This was the first methodical assassination/espionage type movie I'd seen as a kid. More realistic than James Bond, and an engaging enough plot with plenty execution detail while still keeping the antagonist mysterious"

"#brucewilliskillsit ive watched this movie no less than 100 times and i still dont tire of it. I love Sidney Poitier in it. Jack Black. Just a cool movie for that time "

"Good movie, predictable ending but still a lot of fun to watch."
Steve Shubert
"Ok ending drives me crazy"

"I like it, but it isn't one I will call amazing. To me, it's just one of a handful of movies where Gere isn't starring in a Romance movie."
