Wicott should still be doing stuff like this, instead of his (blink and miss him) appaerences in fluff like THE INVASION and (the dreadful) UNSTOPPABLE.

I think thi...I gotta say I really liked this movie. I think this in particular works because Wincott has genuine acting ability and that he makes for an always gritty hero. I also liked that it wasn't afraid to end on vague terms, while i'll always like Last Man Standing more, this was a pretty solid flick. It really is a well made and well acted movie. Also character development was pretty strong as well, as even the ex-boyfriend security guy isn't completely one dimensional nor is Wincott's ex girlfriend or the male nurse who refuses to tell him what is going on. In fact when Wincott puts the knife to his throat, you sort of feel bad for him. Wincott though deserves the most credit for making am unlikable character and actually making him likable.Kennerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01664118447662130586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-196474091232449207.post-83798792769718609222011-04-11T22:44:19.658-04:002011-04-11T22:44:19.658-04:00Thanks, yeah, I think this one just worked, even i...Thanks, yeah, I think this one just worked, even if it wasn't the classic actioner.Direct to Video Connoisseurhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02310858965138247572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-196474091232449207.post-54534748570579512172011-04-11T22:41:26.455-04:002011-04-11T22:41:26.455-04:00Great Write-Up!
