I liked it. Travolta was great but I would have liked some more Samuel L. Jackson. All and all it was a good flick.

Really!? To each his own but I thought it stunk. It was a convoluted mess full of plot holes, and that ending... whew, it's like there was no point to the movie at all because by the end I didn't care about what happened...

This was another "just ok" movie. Ok to see once, but not worth buying on DVD.

And as for Samuel L. Jackson, I am glad to watch movies where he dies in them. IMO he cannot act worth a shit. Every movie with him in it, is like watching "Pulp Fiction". The big, angry, yelling black man. "Deep Blue Sea" was the best so far. He was in the middle of one of his angry lectures and was all of sudden eaten by a shark. Good stuff.
