This was a solid action and suspense film starring Adam 'Edge' Copeland as Lucas Nolan, a skilled federal interrogator and all-around dare-devil law enforcement officer.
The film weaves an intriguing story of a terrorist who has laid plans to cripple the city of Minneapolis without taking lives. Lucas interrogates the perp using his unique "memory house" to read the suspect's mind through tiny clues. As a "behavioral analyst," Lucas is tops, but his overly assertive tactics lead to him lose favor with his colleagues.
The major lapse in the film was the notion of taking the arrested terrorist around the city of Minneapolis in order to pry information out of him about the next attack. The perp, whose name is Vasti, enjoys himself as the ebb-and-flow of the action reveals his diabolical mind. This pattern stretched credibility.
One of the most interesting portions of the film was the background provided on the upbringing of both Lucas and Vasti. Those details will figure prominently in a plot twist at the end. There were also some sly moments of humor in the film, such as the critical moment when the computer expert is asked a question to prevent an explosion in the Federal Reserve Bank, and she replies, "I can't do anything! I'm on hold!"
The film was worth watching for the take-character character of Lucas and his apparent bonding with Vasti. There was good film footage of Minneapolis with a shot of the old Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome. The pacing of the film was brisk and it was non-stop action along with an intriguing psychological drama.

A Crackling Good Story
Taking chances
For a movie that is supposedly all about logic .. well let's just say it takes quite a lot of chances. I like Edge (or Adam Copeland as his parents, friends and relatives call him) and I like Lana (I forgot her real name) - but is it enough to like the movie and the quite .. crazy stuff that is happening here. I reckon the twist itself is ok, whether you knew about it or not. Whether you can see it coming or not ... logic is out, does not really play a role.
It seems like many characters talk a lot but do not live up to what they should be doing. Overall it is decent I reckon, if you don't expect too much from it ... which is the best way to watch it anyway.
Surprisingly Good
Fast paced without being sloppy. Interesting; watch until the end. Entertaining film.
