One of the best action movies I've ever seen and I've seen a few in my day. This movie delivers the goods; great cast acting, great car chase(one of the best seen on film) and a great story (plot). In fact, the only thing that's not great is the fact that this film has yet to be...( read more)

One of the greatest action movies I have ever seen. Real actors, great car chase and a believable story that doesn't insult your intelligence. Right from the start you are put into James Brolin's shoes as a stranger snatches his daughter in the middle of Central Park. As the chase unfolds, you see what he sees and feel what he's feeling. Almost immediately you have to ask yourself; "what would I do in his place, how afar would you go to get your loved one back at all costs?" If you've long since given up watching action(thriller) movies, because of bad acting, and stupid plots that stretch the imagination to the breaking point, you owe it to yourself to check out Night of the Juggler. The only problem is as good as this movie is, it has yet to see the light of day on DVD. In my opinion, that's the real crime here. So if you still have a VHS player and a membership at Blockbuster, you may be in luck. Otherwise its wait and see for a movie that's way over due for a DVD release.
