    It causes one to think that maybe it is everyones responsibility to keep our country free even if it takes getting our hands dirty and breaking a sweat.

    This is a classic Bruce Willis movie with all the one liners and the incredible action. The action scenes are almost constant with the usual amount of unbelievability. You leave the theatre wondering why we don't send Bruce Willis to the Middle east to take care of our terrorist problems. It was entertaining and kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time. I enjoyed watching the young hacker slowly develop courage perhaps brought on by Willis' daughter. The daughter came to life imitating her fathers verbal skill along with the gutsy attitude. It would be great to see her play a more active role taking up her fathers cause as he not so gracefully ages.
