December 18, 2009"Who's the best cop now?"
When a film's director is named Rowdy Herrington, a name that reminds me of a bad SNL character, the film's gotta be... something something.
Herrington has faded from the biz and Willis had his disappointments of his career at the time of this movie. W... read more -
December 14, 2009A very good action thriller as a cop thinks another cop might be a serial killer. Plenty of good action scenes, and twists guessing the killer. A very strong cast line up as well. If you've not seen this it's worth checking out!

January 23, 2007One of those dumb potboiler thrillers that gets a ridiculous amount of play on TNT because it's cheap and yet has recognizable faces.

December 13, 2009sayers1977A film from a low period in Willis' career, this really is a load of old tosh.

Chuck O'Leary, Fantastica Daily
A troubled production (reshoots, release-date postponements) that turned out to be surprisingly watchable.

Scott Weinberg, eFilmCritic.com
One of Bruce Willis' most disposable and formulaic action potboilers. I'm a big fan of the Willis, and even I have no patience for "Striking Distance."

James Sanford, Kalamazoo Gazette
A mess, although the stars do what they can with the scattershot screenplay

Bob Bloom, Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN)
Not one of Willis' best efforts; very formulaic and uninteresting.

Fails to deliver anything remotely original. Full Review
