Jodie must have been hard up for some ready cash when she signed the dotted line for this run of the mill production. I enjoyed the thing so I suppose I shouldn't gripe but I have come to expect more lofty attempts at quality from this actressis that word out of vogue today?]. There were gobs of stressful nail biting, truckloads of violence, eyesful of sights and earsful of sounds portraying what a evil, anything for the almighty buck world we live in. Yes, it had all this but the film still lacked an ingredient that I always look for in any movie and that is newness. I didn't find it here even as I sat tensely relaxed watching Foster fight to save her ill daughter and herself from the smart, the bad, and the whiney.
