I absolutely love this film and has to be in my top thirty of all time films. It has everything and keeps you hanging on until the end. I rememebr watching this is in the cinema when it came out and remember having a lump in my throat a few times during the film.

This is a film that has the ability to grab you and not let you go until it's ready to let it's hold on you go. Bruce willis plays a great role but for me the highlight was Steve Buscemi as Rockhound - worth watching the film for him alone.

The music is pure American and includes the awesome ballad by Aerosmith that was a number one hit on release for a number of weeks. The sound is great especially through a 5.1 system and still holds up well 6 years after it's release.

One of the best Action movies in the last 10 years.
