Summary: stop being so critical....it's an action movie
Review: i found this film very entertaining and well acted (especially by miko hughes as simon),except for alec baldwin's performance.. the plot centers around a 9 year old autistic boy who cracks a top secret government code. needless to say,this puts him in danger. fbi agent bruce willis comes to the rescue.

Summary: hmmm.....not so smart
Review: I would have to laugh with the review made by the canadian viewer. He sure nailed it down to what the movie really is. To me it was somewhat suspenseful but an insult to to any viewer and out with any real potential for this movie by a lot of shooting.

Summary: 'Mercury Is Not On The Money'
Review: Bruce playing a demoted FBI cop who desperately wants to protect an innocent autistic child after he cracks a secret government code is pretty standard for Bruce. I mean isn't that what he always does in his movies? This was not very original, except for the fact that Bruce did show a much softer side to movie-goers that we rarely get to see. Alec Baldwin was really good as sounding like a villan, but he just basically reads his lines and that's about it. BEWARE OF THIS MOVIE FOR IT LACKS A SERIOUS STORYLINE. But if you are a Bruce Willis fan, that probably won't matter. Besides Bruce has done worse work than this. The script is pretty bad, so in defence of Bruce's acting, he can only work with what is given to him....

Summary: Dumb premise.
Review: If the super code was placed in a puzzle magazine (How would you even do this?), to test the "geek factor" and the code were broken, wouldn't you discard the code as failed because someone broke it? NO, let's kill the person, and anyone else that subsequently breaks the code. I try not to get too analytical in watching movies but this was too much of a stretch.

Rating:
Summary: Not like Willis. But has some wonderful drama
Review: This was a good rent movie, but not like other films of Willis. It has a touching drama with the kid, but on the other hand, it has some bad minor actors that don't know how to act.

Rating:
Summary: Excellent Movie - may seem stupid to Average IQs ~over-head!
Review: Bruce Willis is in an all too real situation. People don't want to believe the system is the way it is, so they aren't going to believe it. It's really scary to think these things happen in our society. It makes us feel powerless. Who can we trust in a crisis? Albeit, the life of one autistic child is certainly not more important than all the lives lost in this film. If you believe the system got cleaned up at the end, it was all worth it. See this movie.

Summary: Excellent movie, one of the best, not for average IQs
Review: This movie is for anyone who lives in the real world, if they enjoy living in it a little more without risking their own skin. Bruce Willis plays a real good guy gone good. Too many people die to justify the cause. But the process is interesting.

Rating:
Summary: Good film, bad company
Review: THe film itself is fun, but i found it really annoying that not long after I got the "regular" bar bone DVD they came out with another version that has all the extras. Can't they get it right the first time?

Rating:
Summary: This was great
Review: i thought this movie was awesome! i saw it with some friends and we all felt so sorry for the little boy, we almost cried! this story is touching, yet action packed, its a really good balance of the two.

Summary: Not the Bruce Willis we know in Die Hard
Review: It's kind of hard to picture Bruce Willis as the sentimental type. However, in this movie, he takes on the responsibility of an autistic boy and breaks all the rules to get to the bottom. Along the way you see Bruce Willis with a heart for this child. Not a bad movie, not the best either.
