Solid Summer Action, Nothing More

A solid movie. I was actually a little surprised. John Travolta (I usually despise his work) was the best he has been in a long long time. Denzel was his standard self, very good. The plot is pretty thin and the concept of the movie is as old as time itself. I wouldn't put this on any major awards list but it was good.
Keep in mind that this is an average Tony Scott movie. The action is good, the camera is jumpy and the movie always ends as you would expect. This is far from this best but better than his last couple of offerings.
My review is short because there isn't much to explain. I would take this as a normal summer action movie that may be better than the last few that have come out. Don't see it expecting anything new but see it to enjoy some mindless summer action drama.
