t all starts out simply enough: four people dressed in painters'
outfits march into the busy lobby of Manhattan Trust, a cornerstone
Wall Street branch of a worldwide financial institution. Within
seconds, the costumed robbers place the bank under a surgically planned
siege, and the 50 patrons and staff become unwitting pawns in an
airtight heist.
NYPD hostage negotiators Detectives Keith Frazier (Denzel
Washington) and Bill Mitchell (Chiwetel Ejiofor) are dispatched to the
scene with orders to establish contact with the heist's ringleader,
Dalton Russell (Clive Owen), and ensure safe release of the hostages.
But things don't progress as planned. Russell proves an unexpectedly
canny opponent; clever, calm and totally in command, a puppet master with
a meticulous plan to disorient and confuse not only the hostages, but
also the authorities. Outside, the crowd of New Yorkers grows as the
situation becomes increasingly tense.
The robbers appear to consistently be one step ahead of the police,
outwitting Frazier and Darius at every turn. Frazier's suspicions that
more is at work than anyone perceives are justified with the entry of
Madeline White (Jodie Foster), a power player with shadowy objectives,
who requests a private meeting with Russell.
But just what are the robbers after? Why has nothing worked to
alleviate the standoff, which stretches on hour after hour? Frazier is
convinced that invisible strings are being pulled and secret
negotiations are taking place as the powder keg situation grows more
unstable by the moment. With loyalties and motives called into
question, the detective engages in a risky game of cat-and-mouse, but
with the rules of the game ever changing, one wrong move may take the
volatile match closer to a disastrous and deadly conclusion.
This an ORIGINAL, GUARANTEED, NOT a copy. I bought this and have watched it, so it is used but in excellent condition.
Great opportunity to own this powerful movie on dvd!
