"No way out. No way back."
Hassan is a Somali-American airport driver in Minneapolis, struggling to make ends meet.

Weak thriller. The story is simple and holds no further surprises. The execution is quite boring. The build-up takes a very long time because very little happens in the first 40 minutes. Only then does the thriller part really begin, but unfortunately, that is disappointing too. There is hardly any suspense, and furthermore, it is very predictable. There are a few small action moments, but they don't amount to much. The filmmakers try to add some drama, but that doesn't get off the ground either. Hounsou delivers a strong performance, but McPhee fails to convince. 1.5/2.0

Apparently, not everyone thinks this is a great movie, but I actually found it quite enjoyable to watch. I also thought Hounsou and MvPhee did more than a good job.
By the way, I think Hounsou is quite a good actor, who by his own admission is always severely underpaid despite his more than 160 films and two Oscar nominations.....this of course has to do with racism in the US.....
