Hostage

Yesterday I watched Hostage starring Bruce Willis. I hadn’t heard allot of decent reviews on it so I didn’t have my hopes up. In the movie, Bruce Willis is a failed police negotiator turned small town cop. A hostage situation takes place in his town and he is forced back as a negotiator to save the lives of the family taken hostage. Things turn out to be allot more complicated and he gets drawn into a much more dangerous situation.

The intro credits to the movie were really cool. It looked like something out of a Frank Miller comic and the style didn’t match the movie at all. The intro credits were basically too funky and stylish for the actual movie.

The movie itself was good though, it never got boring and something was always happening. Some reviews said that they were tired of Bruce Willis playing a cop and the movie reminded them too much of the Die Hard trilogy, I personally would rather see Bruce Willis play a cop then anything else. If you’ve watched Hudson Hawk or the disastrous The Whole Ten Yards you would know what I am talking about.

Ultimately, if you are looking for a fun movie to watch that doesn’t require you to think, this is the movie to watch.
