One of witch he is convinced is hiding something. His own teem arrive but he will only negotiate with Chris Sabian (Kevin Spacey), a negotiator from another department.
I was really drawn to this film, when i first watched it. The acting is fantastic. There are some really suspenseful scenes, where characters are frustrated and the actors pull it off very well. There are some very effective quotes scenes. It is a bit long but definitely not boring, filled with twists and turns and dialogue that adds to the excitement.
The Negotiator is clever, well executed and well written thriller. In my opinion, Jackson and Spacey at their best!
