kurt russell be so believable and the action so non stop that it take think about it afterward to realize that there be honest to goodness important theme [ overcome fear of the stranger and learning to rise above early conditioning and the strength that love and friendship can bring and etc . ] in the storyline . this be so very rare for a guy action flick that even i [ who think most a or a be violent pap ] like the film and have recommend it to every guy i know . it a shame this one be overlook because by right it should have be one of the big action adventure box office hit it have something for everyone without strain credulity or lose the nearly non stop action moment . i be afraid the answer to it not become a hit lie in the fact that adult do not go to see it . anyone under 20 probably have not only see more violent action in their video game but probably would either not catch the multi layer and multi theme beauty or not care about it . this film could convert anyone who avoid a or a a mindless violence . if a guy take his lady [ or rent it or see it in a cable list ] to see this film he will be much more likely to get her to go with him to other action flick .
