Review of Hostage (2005) by Jens S — 10 May 2008
Another Bruce Willis as a cop who saves the day movie? Yes and No. The film starts with a really cool looking title sequence and gets right in the middle of things. The cinematography is really pretty to look at the and the house of the hostage situation really unique.
The situation is quite interesting, even if somewhat over the top, the movie is quite bloody too. The thrilller is entertaining at every point yet somehow the showdown feels bit forced and isn't entirely satisfying.
That's still decent entertainment for fans of Willis or the genre, but somehow I can't put my finger on what's been missing. I just know something has.
