I'm a huge Bill Pullman fan anyways, but even if I wasn't before, I would be after this film. The urgency and intensity in this film is contagious, and leaves you at the edge of your seat. This film has everything... danger, emotional entanglements, suspense, romance, deception, explosions, and more! If you like action movies, you'll love this one. There are many unique and utterly charming scenes here that will make this film worthwhile for anyone's tastes.

This review is from: Ignition (DVD)

I've enjoyed Bill Pullman and especially Lena Olin in many other films. However, the screenplay and directing of Ignition is very poor. There was no Ignition. There are many superfluous elements that should have left on the Editor's Table. The dialog and action were never succinct. They were hard put to come to a conclusion. The actors were never prompted to perform to their capabilities. All in all I couldn't wait for the movies to finish. Nothing worked well.

This review is from: Ignition (DVD)

Much worse than you might expect given such a sterling cast (Olin and Pullman.) Plenty of cheesy stuff with Pullman over the top as tough-guy type trying to protect "bitchy" federal judge from all sorts of bad guys.
