    With Al Pacino in the lead, and a pretty solid and impressive supporting cast, you would think that this movie couldn't miss. And with a catchy and effective trailer, you'd think "well it must be good". Well it's not. The timeline is all wrong. There is just no way all this progress would happen in less than 90 minutes. There are more holes in this one than in Sonny's car after the hit in Godfather! I'm not sure what drives Pacino to choose his roles at this stage of his career, but it sure ain't the quality of the script. Can't blame the supporting cast for wanting to work with Pacino though. For a suspense movie, this one actually has quite a few drags in it. It tries to do too much in an unrealistic timeframe, and manages to skip some parts and logical progression. This one is just not worth it, even if you don't pay. But maybe that's just me... my time IS money... and with great movies out there worth spending time and money on, I just think that this one just ain't worth it.

    Timelines are adjusted to fit a movie. Have you watched 24? All kind of things happen in every 24 hour episode and it keeps you alert. This movie follows an argument from the beginning to the end and everything matches. Maybe you got distracted at moments, if you did you loose it.
