I'd give it 7 of 10 stars. Lots of violence/shooting, but one knows that going in. Not a huge Bruce Willis fan (other than Sixth Sense) but it was a good role suited for him.

Movie shot in Chicago, even tho the novel it was based on was set in NYC. But nowadays Chicago is a perfect fit for that street violence. Also it was apparent the the producers were very careful not to depict one Race as bad... Surprised that the city approved the movie permit that depicts Chicago so poorly (but the politicians needed the $$$).

Back on point> The trailer contained all the funny parts. There are a few "give me a break" moments in the movie, but they all do. Yet another 'shoot 'em up' film that leaves me desensitized to killing bad guys. Oh, and very bad timing for the release so soon after the school event.
