Giving this movie 8 out of 10 stars is a huge stretch and I suspect that the fact that Clooney and Bullock, especially Bullock, is in it has a hell of a lot to do with why this film got such high marks.

The movie is predictable and annoying at times, especially with Sandra Bullock and her return to the movie Speed screaming. The camera work and scenery were great, but the plot was slightly better than OK and the acting was about the same.

Overall the movie is very watchable, but certainly not worth all of the hoopla. I think 6 stars out of 10 is fare. A lot of money was spent on this film, but there was a lot more that should've been done to make it more believable for 1 and just better all around in my opinion.
