	Author	Review
United States	Peter Travers Rolling Stone	"You won't find much that's new in this action scorcher (...) But with Bridges and Jones giving their explosive all, who cares (...) As mindless summer fun goes, it's a blast."	POS
United States	Roger Ebert Chicago Sun-Times	"All of the dramatic scenes are just filler between explosions; they should either have been taken more seriously, or left out. (...) Rating: ★★ (out of four)."	NEU
United States	Desson Thomson The Washington Post	"Bridges -- normally a brilliant performer -- seems lost when his character is required to experience emotion. But Jones, as always, takes villainy to a higher, entertaining place (...) It's a series of well-orchestrated, even playful suspense ordeals"	NEU
