    [Highly rated reviewer]

    This film was an average hollywood movie with a major filmstar, who in my mind is a bit like an American version of Michael Caine, as in, he doesn't get the films he deserves to be in. All in all this is a slow, but tense thriller, that can keep the average film watcher, like me, on the edge of his seat.

  • Very good watchable thriller

    Rated - 3.5 stars  
    By Bobsview (559 reviews) from Gloucestershire , 02 Apr 2013
    Harrison Ford in a very good thriller where he is head of security at a bank in Seattle but his family is kidnapped to try to force him to release $10M ransom through computer hacking. Very credible performances all round. Violent.

  • not ford's best

    Rated - 4.0 stars

    this film was ok, but ford has definitely done much much better films.

    the storyline was a little predictable and a little old hat.

    the only reason i havent given it lower stars is cause ford is a good actor in his own right

  • Boring and predictable

    Rated - 2.0 stars

    Unimpressive and boring. It's the kind of canned acting and script that should be relegated to late-night television. Skip it.

    But not too bad at all. The plot is ok and the acting is good.You can always rely on Harrison Ford. It's really weird that I got two movies this week with the same kid in; the kid is the same kiddo of Amityville Horror. Anyway, it's also nice that the family take a good care of the dog while they are kidnapped :)

  • Same old, but not too bad really

    Rated - 3.5 stars  
    By Countryboy (81 reviews) from Perthshire , 19 Nov 2011
    Yes, I know - the whole Harrison Ford thing is getting a bit dated now, although the older he gets the more variation in expression he seems to find. The plot is essentially the same as countless other of his films - family held to ransom, he complies with the baddies at first then turns tough, kills them all and is reunited...

    Quite a good film, all the same! Worth a watch, though don't expect to be cerebrally challanged. Harrison Ford is usally good value, even though you know how things are going to turn out.
