Man On Fire: Tony and Ridley need to stop watching each other's films.

I think I've seen this before. Sepia-shifting color, subtitles, frenetic jumps cuts and editing, and Lisa Gerard wailing as only she can. Not that it kills the experience but the experience was well over two hours long with the first half being "learning to love Dakota Fanning" and the second half being "Punisher 3--Real World".

Denzel put in a fine performance and Miss Fanning continues to amaze me at how someone her age can act so convincingly! (I wonder what her teen years will hold--please no Drew Barrymore.) Walken and the rest of the supporting cast did fine turns with Giancarlo not getting enough screen time, IMO.

Somewhat predictable, it still manages a few twists. I presume the Mayor of Mexico City did not see the rushes before the film left the country. This is not a good advertisement.
