7/10
Tired of Nonsense Reviews? Me too!

Deniro and Travolta were what we have come to expect in this film. Both excellent actors a little past their primes, although this movie showed few signs of regress. Travolta, donning a chin-strap and somewhat comical Bosnian-English accent, comes to America in hopes of revenge on a former US soldier(Deniro)whom he had been confronted and shot by in the Bosnian conflict.

After tracking the US soldier to his home cabin in Northwest USA,back-story is revealed. Ultimately, the two engage in a back and forth battle on the countryside pitting wits against wits in hopes of killing one another. The movie has moments of intense action, followed by articulated scenes of survival. Could have been a bit longer with more build up, hence my 7-10 rating. Would have been a 6 had this not been a Deniro-Travolta flick. Cinematography is good, story is to the point, and Deniro and Travolta do what they do.
