As a favor to a friend, policeman Tom O'Meara (Harrison Ford) lets visiting Irishman Rory Devaney (Brad Pitt) stay with him and his family in New York City. Rory's visit is quiet at first, but when Tom and his wife, Sheila (Margaret Colin), return home one day, they're accosted by intruders. Tom soon realizes that Rory is in the Irish Republican Army. When it becomes clear that Rory's stateside trip is part of an effort to transport illegal guns to Dublin, Tom is compelled to stop him. (Shock Entertainment)

This film has one major flaw, it’s boring. Apart from a few exceptions, there is nothing in it that would grab the viewer's heart. It lacks something that would emotionally take the viewer away, something to experience, and that despite the solid performances of Ford and PItt.

There are a few interesting moments, a few boring ones too, the action scenes are okay. The thing I appreciate most about Harrison Ford is that he doesn't play some kind of Rambo, he looks real and genuine.
