DUELING CRITICS

"Renny Harlin directs crisp action sequences but usually builds suspense through camera angles and cutting, not noise and haste. He does this so well that you don't realize until afterward how much of the picture depends on chance"

- Lawrence Toppman

"One-time action wunderkind Renny Harlin proves once again that coherence is not his forte. He's just in it for the execution of bizarre cinematic stunt killings"

- Sean Axmaker
