Director: John Woo

Actors: Ben Affleck, Uma Thurman, Aaron Eckhart, Paul Giamatti, Michael C. Hall, Kathryn Morris, Ivana Milicevic, Joe Morton, Colm Feore

Year: 2003

While this isn't the worst film ever made, it wasn't keeping my interest. This can be added to the string of bad films Ben Affleck was doing in the early 2000s (i.e. "Reindeer Games"). It was a nice try by action director John Woo, but the story wasn't up-to-par.
