trailer:
Slant Magazine says the film
proves to be something in short supply these days: a sturdy, straight-ahead, less-talk, more-action Western.DVD Talk likes it and asks,
how often do you get to see Pierce Brosnan and Liam Neeson engaged in an old-school revenge-drenched mega-chase that runs from the top of a frozen mountain to a godforsaken desert that looks like hell's favorite landscape?and concludes that it
works because of a straight-arrow narrative, a pair of fine performances, a bunch of colorful characters tucked into the background, and a whole lot of really beautiful scenery

But was the waterfall worth seeing? I mean, the waterfall made Last of the Mohicians, didn't it?
ReplyDeletethere was a waterfall towards the beginning of this film, and when i said to the younger son, "if that's the falls in the title, this'll be a very short flick," he just looked at me. parental humor is under-appreciated around here.
ReplyDeletethe plummet over the waterfall won the stuntman an award, or so i read somewhere. it involved the stuntman being cabled to a helicopter and then being dropped into the falls.
