Very good action packed thriller.

The "thinking man's action film" is how director Noyce described this film, and I can't improve on his description. Not an especially new plot but so well handled by all concerned. This is masterly film storytelling at its best. Gripping stuff and first class entertainment with an excellent surround sound track
