Déjà vu



This movie was so-so. It was entertaining in parts, boring in parts, and pretty unbelievable overall (and this is coming from someone raised on Dr. Who). If you watch this movie, I would recommend that 1. You don’t discuss problems with the plot, or you’ll be talking for hours and 2. Catch it at the budget theater, if at all.
I actually wish they had spent more time with Jim Caviezel, who’s scarily convincing as a patriotic terrorist and doesn’t get nearly enough screentime. I wish they had spent less time with the bland, generic female lead, whose only reason for existing is to look pretty and get kidnapped. Denzel Washington is fine, whatever, but has been in much better action flicks recently – Out of Time and Inside Man comes to mind.
