    I only watched this because I thought it was about paramedics. Ugh. The only memorable part of this bizarre thriller was watching how James Earl Jones furiously chews his gum.

    This movie has it's moments, but overall it's pretty stupid. The cast is good however. It goes on a little too far as well. It's a middle of the road movie.

    its still watchable
