    It's about time Denzel did something like this. The well meaning, good hearted touchy-feely movies are nice and all, but you got to remind people you're a badass from time to time.

    @johnnyichiban: Yeah after American Gangster, Man on Fire, Training Day, Deja Vu, Out of Time and Inside Man I've just been wanting him to finally man up and do an action film. Enough of all that hand holding and molly coddling.

    @tetracycloide:

    I made no claims to originality.

    However, if you really think that SEU was made intentionally awful instead of trying to be an over-the-top parody, you need some classes in critical thought.
