Much better than I was expecting still a bit dated but the story was great.
This movie is the embodiment of the old saying “See something, say something”. It’s a good movie however with good actors and plot.
Good suspense thriller with good performances from the leads
What a greatly written, directed, and acted thriller!
This movie was made at an odd time in American History. It really is a great movie and will have you gasping for breath.
Nothing in this movie is plausible, yet the great cast makes this thriller an enjoyable watch.
I haven't watched this since 2000 and I imagine it hasn't agred that well, but it's a great little twisty turny thriller about terrorism.
Great psycholical thriller... Fantastic leads really pull this together...
A thriller, unfortunately it is a one time watch for the full effect. After that it is alright, but no shock value, so not super rewatchable
This was thrillingly “new“ when it first came out, but it’s obvious and stale now. Oh well.
