So hard to watch

Quick cuts, flashing images; should have had a seizure warning.The overlong beginning when Creasy warms up to the girl and vice-versa.And why did they take Creasy at the end---he gave them his brother for the girl.A life for a life. I guess they wanted to add the martyr element because we didn't have enough heart string tugging for the first 45 minutes.Overall it pretty much sucked. And I liked other Denzel movies big time.

Good story with good actors ruined by a bad director. This should've been a 9/10 but the director brought it down to a 6/10.
