Its is going off on AMC right now.

How this movie didn't sweep the Oscars is beyond me.

I tear up every time I watch it.

I like the movie but I can't tell if you're serious or not.

It's honestly not that good a film. But I do enjoy it.

I am serious, I love that movie. The cinematography alone is amazing.

It's a really good movie but the best movie in 15 years? That's completely ridiculous.

It's not even the best Denzel movie in the last 15 years.

I enjoyed this film quite a bit but that's some really high praise and this movie just isn't good enough to warrant anything close to that.

Great movie, but I don't know about best in the last 15 years.

It feel into the trap of looking like every early 2000s older man action film. It was more than that for sure.

i personally enjoyed "proof of life" better and it was made well before "man on fire".

id even consider "taken" to be more entertaining.

I second the Prestige.

It's holding up.

It's an entertaining Tony Scott joint.
Same as the one where Denzel goes back in time.

It is excellent but in no way historic.
