+
+A robbery gone wrong. A dead innocent. A wounded criminal. And some doctor that
+miraculously lives in the middle of nowhere and that can't see he's been
+followed.
+
+And that's basically it. Everything else you can already guess: criminals would
+force him to save the wounded one, he'll fight, there will be some tense
+moments but, in the end, everything will end up fine. It's weird that this kind
+of absolutely bland stuff still gets made. It's even weirder that someone with
+a big name, like Willis, would be part of it. And, yet, there it is.
+
+It seems nobody actually expected much of this, specially Willis. I mean, sure,
+the plot is bland and all, but Willis does a recap of his work in "Unbreakable"
+-- minus the power up thingy -- which feels lazy.
+
+In the end, one hour and half waster.
