It's interesting to me, after seeing Liev in both "Salt" and "The Manchurian Candidate" if he's not the product of MK Ultra. It's beyond the realm of coincidence, frankly

Agreed. He played his part perfectly. I really felt sorry for him in this movie.

Yes, he did great. I've enjoyed him in every film he took part, so far.
Boycott movies that involve real animal violence (& their directors)

He was great in it. Much better than Laurence Harvey.
Wait here. I get dressed, I kill them, I come back.

He made a ho-hum average not so thrilling thriller that fails to touch the genius of the original. It wasn't bad but there certainly wasn't anything daring or original about it.

Agreed! He made a good job in this one!
Prostitute: What the beep are you doing?
Johnny: I'm gonna kill a bunch of people.

I agree. Liev is captivating in his scenes with Denzel. The sadness in his expressions in the scene with Denzel in the classroom & when he was on stage right before he was shot as he was almost pleading with Denzel to shoot him both those scenes made me want to rewind & watch again.
He's a good crier. He has tears on his eyes, and is capable of pulling back those tears & smiling at the same time. I see ppl in my life do that all the time, so it's refreshing how he does it on film. It's a talent.
