this be an underrated and decent little thriller . it probably cost peanut compare to speed and and the elevator bit in this film be just as exciting a any i have ever see . paul mcgann isn not exactly an action hero type . he just a bit too nice to be an action hero . but how many british actor match up to someone like bruce willis and so i guess he be as good a choice a any . i think it be a good thing that he be a sensitive and slightly wimpy with the asthma and and afraid of height and because this make him a much well romantic hero . he and boyishly attempt to ask susan lynch out and and she swear at him and be funny and sweet . the film end without solve any of the problem of the resident of the building ( i mean that mean kid be never punish ) and but end with chrissy agree to go out with rob and seem to imply that this be just a romantic comedy all along .
