May 26, 2010It is what it is. You really cant blame this movie on Russell Crowe or Meg Ryan, but the atrocious screen writer and the studio that allowed this to be made.

January 3, 2009Well, first of all, "Proof of Life" is somewhat of a insignificant movie. Of course the subject of the film is important but there are too many negative aspects.

For all its nail-biting fusillades, it fails to score a shot to the heart. Full Review

Proof of Life refers to a negotiator's demand for proof a hostage is still alive...you may start wondering the same thing about the movie.

Jay Carr, Boston Globe
Proof of Life is intelligent, but culturally biased and less than altogether compelling.

Well directed, superbly acted, full of conflicting emotions and has subtle psychological shifts in loyalties. Full Review
