| Original Score: C- | Sep 7, 2011

In Connery it has a hero who is inescapably appealing.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jun 18, 2002

Despite its merits, the script fails to escape the silly season that fouls up so many thrillers, that time when the twists merely seem like the narrative equivalents of those violin shrieks on a cheesy score.

It doesn't bog down in the bogs, but it's slow-moving just about everyplace else.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 13, 2001

The longer you stay with it, the more routine and uninspired it seems -- not to mention cowardly.

| Jan 1, 2000

There is no psychological depth, no real motivation, no human values to weigh, just characters jerked here and there like puppets in an arbitrary plot.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jan 1, 2000

It's brutal, horribly manipulative, and we've seen this stuff before in better pictures.

| Jan 1, 2000

It's a rich, humid mix of race, murder, and mystery that works well, even if it doesn't work perfectly.
