I don’t know how many days it took to film, how many people were involved, what sort of complexity it took to place the cameras, how often they had to do it to get it right or who did the actual stunt. I just sit there open-mouthed when United States Marshall Sam Gerard (Tommy Lee Jones) opens that roof door to see Mark Roberts/Mark Warren/Mark Sheridan (Wesley Snipes) standing on the edge of the roof facing towards the street and says he can’t be arrested because of what he knows. Mark Whatever then leans out, tumbles off the edge of the roof, swings down attached to some rope and swings out and over the street to the rail yards and lands on the roof of the station and leaps onto a train car leaving for elsewhere. My little heart goes pitty-pat every time.

I’m the kind of guy that stores love to see stumbling through their doors. I have some trouble with impulse control. In recent years, this has manifested itself in the urge to buy whatever shiny catches my eye. I get home and shake my head and wonder what I was thinking when I pulled out my credit card. Mostly I’m able to control it but every so often, a friend will look around my place, see something new, shake their head and snort in annoyance. But I sure don’t have the troubles that Frances (Diane Lane) will have after buying a dilapidated old villa while on a two-week coach tour of the Tuscany region of Italy. But I have to admire her reasoning for making the purchase. If I thought I didn’t have the life I wanted and found myself afraid of its prospects, I’d pony up the bucks and buy that place.

Most people know of the old aphorism about revenge being a dish best served cold. But when the object of your need for reprisal is a multitude, how do you go about wreaking it? Perhaps the easiest or simplest is to attack something they all value. In this case, it is all of the peripheral characters who participated in the spreading of details on the death of Owen Reilly’s (Joseph Cross) father. And then publicize the process of murdering them with the zeal that they put into talking publicly about his dad’s suicide and thereby diminishing them. But how do you handle those who are too vague to realize that this is why it is happening to them?

Holly Anderson (Yasmine Bleeth) is enjoying lunch at an outdoor restaurant located beside a canal. She is the object of some attention by a struggling writer, Harrison Tyler (Dean Winters) when my attention was distracted by the semi-familiar locale. It turns out that the scene was filmed down at the end of my street. Not many movies get shot in my home town let alone within a block of my house. A fanboy’s dream.

Have you ever done anything on impulse? It takes just a moment to decide (or not) to do something which can change your life. Turn left instead of right. Ask a question that pops into your head. Look at someone longer than is appropriate. It can change everything. You look back and wonder what might have happened had I done the other. Luke Falcon (Steven Strait) drops his glove and Brier Tucket (Pell James) calls him back to give it to him. Rather than take it as he gets on the subway, he tosses the other one back to her. He knows he should have gone back to see her but he’s in a hurry to get his career going. She gets that look in her eye and wonders whether he might have been the one.

All Selene (Kate Beckinsale) and Michael Corvin (Scott Speedman) want are a few supplies and a little gnosh before heading home to get a little sleep after belting about the bad guy minions. But no, the townsfolk see Michael’s picture on TV and decide to corral him. He objects, they start shooting, he runs, they plug him many times, he keeps going, skedaddling towards the woods, they follow shooting all manner of guns making mince meat of his torso. Selene decides that’s enough for now and helps out by dodging bullets and cracking skulls until they run out of townies. Then it is time to replenish Michael with some of Selene’s blood just before the really bad guy shows up. All they wanted was a snack and a nap, all they get instead is Markus Corvinus (Tony Curran), the very first vampire.

What does it take to prove you’re human? Violet Song jat Shariff (Milla Jovovich), a courier, discovers it takes a battery of tests. She’s ushered into a sterile room where they immobilize her, stick probes into her bloodstream and eyes, her mouth and teeth to verify breathing after which she is scanned again for bone, blood and tissue irregularities just so she can pick up a package for delivery and it turns out she is a fraud anyway. Oh dear…

Have you ever met someone with whom you are certain that you’ll be with forever? Nope, neither have I. But watch Selene (Kate Beckinsale) step of that balcony in the rain, clad in that long leather coat and those thigh high buckle-up boots and land with such ease, walking away with grace and you’ll be sure she is the one. Mind you the vampire thing might be something of a problem.

What’s so great about being a grown-up? I’ve wondered about that for years. I imagine you have too. Aside from needing a stipend to live on, being an adult can be overrated. Molly Gunn (Brittany Murphy) seems to be doing fine, living off her inheritance. Sure, she hasn’t accomplished much, doesn’t have many real friends and can’t seem to cope with the day-to-day intricacies of city living. But she is having fun as long as her accountant Bob pays the bills. Now broke, homeless and in need of a job, she becomes a nanny for Ray Schliene (Dakota Fanning) and they have yet to connect. In a snit, Molly quits her job, walks out of the kitchen and slams the door. Unfortunately for her, it is a swinging door. Yeah, that sure does sting and likely will leave a scar.

What does it take to make some time for a loved one, given your busy day? Simon Ballester (Steven Seagal) is on the hunt for the killer of his cop son. He is wistful in his memories of his son’s funeral he tells Alice (Carmen Serano) that he begrudges his not finding the time to spend five minutes just to make a phone call to get caught up with what is going on in his son’s life.
