Saw it last night. It wasn't terrible but it wasn't very good either. Denzel is good, as always, and the story is somewhat interesting. The badguys are cardboard cutouts of tried and true archtypes, though, the imagery is stark but nothing new, and there are a few plot holes. The "twist" at the end was pretty obvious too, IMHO.

I recommend that you save yourself a few bucks by either waiting for it to appear at a discount theater or renting it once it's released on DVD.
