I like many cop movies, but this one was so "off the mark" that I thought it was ridiculous. I don't mind when the plot is sensationalized, but to see one cop be able to do that many unrealistic things is silly to me. Plus, Nick Cage is not a believable tough guy to me. Just my thoughts.......

Long time no talk Denis! I hope all is well my friend, David
