Fire with Fire directed by David Barrett. Starring Josh Duhamel, Rosario Dawson and Bruce Willis. Yet to be released in parts of the other world on 6th Nov. 2012
Firefighter Jeremy (Josh Duhamel) witnesses couple of murders at liquor store, murdered by Hagan (Vincent D'Onofrio) seemingly a white-nationalist with Swastika sign below his throat. Jeremy narrowly escapes. Detective Mike (Bruce Willis) upon learning of murders by Hagan takes up the case, on the notion that Hagen had killed his partner and his wife, while collecting evidence against him. Jeremy agrees to get witness-protection to go after Hagan and his team being.
Casting of Bruce Willis seemed as if to lift the action career of Josh Duhamel. Since, there was no big contribution from Bruce to the movie. I did not find anything new in this movie. Love-chemistry between Josh and Rosario could not impress anyone at all (Rosario is US Marshal assigned to be with him). A man like Hagan, who was unreachable by both police, and Feds, fell vulnerable to mere witness. Silly movie don't wait for the movie at all!

Thanks for the heads up! I am not very interested by this film! Bruce Willis did a great job in Looper, but it doesn't look like he has a big part of this one as you said. Nice review as always!

This is how aging action heroes are being adjusted to boost career for beginners. Good decision better stay away, and close this year with Looper as the last film of the year from Bruce Willis (although I've not yet seen that).

And did you see there will be a Die Hard 5 pretty soon in the theaters? I thought the trailer looked terrible. Willis should start doing more dramas or comedies because he is a great actor in my opinion. Just needs more versatility!

Surprised Willis is doing straight to DVD efforts. I still think Willis is a great actor. Just hope he gets more roles that rely more on his acting abilities. Nicely written.

We all agree about Willis being good action hero, and I also agree that these actions heroes have got to earn their living and not just look around for beautiful screenplays for the sake of us.
