Panic
(2002)

Waste of good acting
I rented this movie because I love Kristanna Loken and I've watched her on many TV shows and since she's having her 15 minutes of fame nowadays with her new T3 movie I wanted to check out what other movies she has been in.

She's just OK in terms of acting. Not good and not bad either. She makes up for everything by being extremely gorgeous. YUMMMMM

Rodney Rowland was quite a surprise as the hero. He provided the only solid good acting in the movie. He's a very good actor and should probably be an action star.

Besides Kristanna being OK and Rodney being really good everything else about this movie is garbage in its purest form.

A computer hacker hacks into the system of a plane from the ground and using a joystick he tries to slam the plane into a nuclear power plant ..... or something. And of course there are the heroes who stand in his way and ruin his game.

This is one of the worst scripts I have ever seen and no wonder it was a low budget flick.

What's shocking is that this movie was made in 2001 and it has way too many similarities to the September 11th tragedies.

Why do they make movies like this in the first place?

Panic * - one star (a waste of too good actors) (also a waste of time) (also known as Air Panic)

Frantic
(1988)

Masterpiece
One of the greatest Polanski movies of all time. Harrison Ford is awesome and Emanuelle Seigner steals the show. Their chemistry is fantastic. The movie has plenty of suspense combined with some humor.

The naive Seigner character and Ford's seriousness and panic makes both characters truly funny at times. The movie is filmed in a really dark blueish light which makes it a bit creepy at times but it works perfectly. This movie is a masterpiece if given a chance. It is a movie with a real story and real characters. Those who can't stand a real movie such as this should perhaps go back and watch Hollywood movies where fictional heroes blow up cars and buildings for and hour and a half.

Frantic **** (great movie)
