What is it about: Robert Redford plays a CIA agent who has 24 hours to rescue his colleague (Brad Pitt) who has been captured and sentenced to be killed in a chnese prision.
--> Review -
First of all the movie
starts off with a nice opener with Brad Pitt getting captured by chinese
prision guards, which sets the pace of the movie but as the film progresses
we begin to wonder what it is all about, we know that Redford has to get
him out but then there are all these subplots which include Pitt's love interest
which is rather off putting but despite that this is a good movie and is
quite well structured. I have been a fan of Tony Scott's work since the days
of Top Gun and Days of Thunder and this one like the rest doesn't dissapoint.
Some nice action shots and great acting from Brad an Robert.
