    Sounds great! I have it on my rental list, so I'll be getting it whenever I send something else back.

    Watched it last night with the Wife, my Wife enjoyed the movie (I guess because of Travolta), it was just ok for me which was disappointing because I think Travolta is an excellent actor. Not much in the audio dept, video was good. One thing for sure, Steven Segal should be a huge fan of this movie:p.

    I enjoyed this immensely, and would totally be down for watching a sequel, and it looked like they left it open enough for one.

    Travolta did a GREAT job with that character.
