This movie stars Morgan Freeman as an escaped prisoner and John Cusack as the man who finds him. It was ok, but not that great. The story was good, a little suspense, but not that exciting. I think there are better movies out there. The movie begins with John Cusack taking his son on a camping trip. Morgan Freeman plays a man who heads a team of hit men. They take care of "obstacles to progress". He has never messed up until he gets in a car accident and is taken to the hospital. There they discover his true identity, and the US Marshall is sent in to transport him. Along the way his men follow him in an attempt to set him free. They are almost successful, but the car he is in goes over an embankment and he ends up in the river. John Cusack and his son find him with handcuffs on. The movie follows them as they try to outrun his men and get Morgan Freeman to somewhere the police can help them. Throughout the movie you learn a little about Freeman's character and why he is so secretive. He has some tie to the government, but they never really delve into it. The movie ends and you feel they could have told you more. Freeman has this hidden past dealings with people in gov't., but they never really say what. So, it was ok, but could have been better. Basically it's something you'd watch on TV on a lazy Saturday or Sunday afternoon.
