90Watching Moore battle the heavy odds may be formulaic fun, but it's genuine fun, and the formula is classic.

80What he (Scott) does superbly is establish a raw, compelling reality that transcends his movie's banal premises and predictable conclusion. That permits Moore to play, and us to feel, authentic pain, isola- tion and courage--shocking stuff to find in an action movie these days. [25 August 1997, p. 72]

60Bancroft and Mortensen take home the acting awards -- the pleasure they take in what they're doing really makes the film come alive.
-
20Virtually unendurable.
