1. Ashamed, I didn't watch this very famous action movie until today. It was unexpectedly good-looking.

2. The film's narration is clear and smooth, with a good sense of rhythm. No procrastination, almost no useless plot, not looking tired.

3. Car chasing, explosions, gunfights, hunting...every link is handled well, the pictures are crisp and sharp, and the director's skills are fully demonstrated.

4. The story is unconventional. The ultimate goal of the offender is very ambitious, which is absolutely different from the little thieves in general police and criminal films.

5. The bandit character created by John Travota is full of character, bold and careful, and impressive.

6. The small reversal of the ending is a bit interesting and unconventional.

7. Hugh Jackman was only able to play this kind of role at that time. Now that he has become famous, it is impossible for him to take this kind of role again.

8. Harry Berry has a dew point, but it is not necessary for the plot.

9. Overall, it is better-looking than most current action movies, recommended.
