Customer Reviews of Firewall (Combo HD DVD and Standard DVD) [HD DVD]
Harrison Bored I really love most movies and I'm not usually critical; but I'm glad that I only rented this one. The character development was so completely lacking that when a home invasion/family kidnapping happened and it seemed that the lead character's family member might be at risk of being hurt; it was kind of a "who cares" moment. Overall; this movie was kind of a "who cares" 144 minutes. There was certainly no lesson or moral to be learned from this tale. The acting was poor; but the plot was poorer. Let's see, you're the security czar for a mid-sized chain of banks in the United States and you have no provisions for your own personal security...hmmm.... I guess to prevent the poor plot from feeling self-conscious the writers added in lots of hokey technology to keep us shaking our heads and wondering if we somehow blinked and missed the part that made all of this nonsense seem plausible. The only outcome after watching this is a feeling that maybe the world is a scarier place than I have thought it was. Does someone stand to benefit from an increased level of social fear in the United States? ... hmmm... Sorry; I usually love Harrison Ford movies; but not even he could save this one.
PG13 World
I'm giving this one two stars, in part because, I suppose, there is a certain technical sleekness to Firewall. Kind of like showing up for class and getting a C minus (or D plus). But I'd love to go ahead and pull the trigger and give Firewall one star, just for the pure cynical calculation behind the making of the movie. Firewall is yet another PG-13 movie, playing it safe, staying within the bounds of whatever Hollywood deems as "conventional" thriller (which now includes food allergies for the kids). Harrison Ford, as Jack Stanfield (strong name alert), wheezes his way through the connect-a-dots plot, while Virginia Madsen, as Stanfield's wife, looks glad for the paycheck, but that's about it. She's supposed to be carrying on an affair with one of Stanfield's associates - which is tacked on as an afterthought. Heavens! Being a super soccer mon (and architect!), when would she have the time? Yes, ladies, in a PG-13 world, you can still have it all. That said however, Madsen at least seems to have a pulse as she mother-hens the kids and the family dog through the danger. Ford, on the other hand, just looks alarmingly gray most of the time (skin, not hair). Paul Bettany is OK, I guess, as the villain who puts together a rather ridiculous high tech plot to steal money. But I've seen him in much better films. Like Madsen, he's collecting a paycheck.

>As an alternative, consider watching Spike Lee's Inside Man (which I watched the same weekend), and see what a well-scripted, well-acted, thriller can be. Skip this turkey.
Yeah, implausible
But entertaining enough to pass some time. Not as bad as some say, but Harrison where have you gone?
