Interview,  April, 2003  by Andrea Meyer

(Columbia)

Directed by John McTiernan

The attraction here is John Travolta and Samuel L. Jackson reunited onscreen for the first time since 1994's Pulp Fiction. But without Quentin Tarantino's wild pop-philosophical antics, it's unlikely the duo will succeed in recreating their former magic, especially in a thriller about a reckless DEA agent (Travolta) investigating the disappearance of an elite commando unit (led by Jackson). Expect plenty of combat and courtroom action and a few surprises, but groundbreaking cinema is unlikely.
