Proof of Life

Fails for so many reasons it is worth the watch. Here are a few:

1) The action is on par with something you might see on the A Team.

2) Taylor Hackford tries to reprise the simmering steaminess he got from Jeff Bridges and Rachel Ward and Richard Gere and Debra Winger. Here, he is forced to work with a guy who say "mate" incessantly and the perky popsicle that is Meg Ryan.

3) The script is lame and sometimes inexplicable.

4) David Caruso and David Morse are fine supporting actors, but Caruso runs like a girl. When he runs around, rewind it several times. It is hilarious.
