Sidney Poitier is the FBI deputy director and the only one in the cast to lend this movie credibility.

| Original Score: C- | Jan 10, 2023

A few moments of potential white-knuckle confrontations deflate, but they’re minimal; the actors do such an outstanding job of taking their roles seriously that it’s difficult not to get wrapped up in the suspense.

| Original Score: 8/10 | Jul 11, 2022

As suspense, it's suspenseless.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Mar 29, 2022

The less-than-engrossing vibe is, at least, tempered by the effectiveness of the three leads' work and a smattering of compelling sequences...

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Oct 22, 2018

The usually reliable director Michael Caton-Jones hasn't a clue how to freshen up such stale material. If you bite your fingernails, it will only be from boredom.

The international pursuit grows borderline monotonous but there is a jump in pacing during the Washington, D.C., climax.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Jan 9, 2018

It delivers in the shoot-'em-up mentality, not to be taken seriously but a fun thing to watch on a Saturday afternoon.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 30, 2012

| Original Score: C | Sep 7, 2011

The simple chase set-up is promising, but the follow-through is curiously lethargic and suspenseless.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Mar 8, 2009

A fast-paced, underrated reworking of the often-sluggish Day of the Jackal. Willis is good as the villainous title character. More enjoyable than anyone wanted to admit.

Whether you like original action movies, or female empowerment, either way you will be disappointed.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 28, 2002

There's a certain novelty factor at work here that may appeal to die-hard Willis fans... As to everyone else, it's hard to imagine why they'd want to bother.
