Bruce Willis makes a good everyman's hero. Any one who has seen the "Die Hard" series, which runs 47 times a day on USA Network, knows that his movies are definitely entertaining and that he does a good job in all of them. "Hostage" doesn't just fit the Willis thriller formula; it does a better job than most hostage thrillers have done in terms of telling a story and making it believable and entertaining the whole way through. The acting is outstanding, the plot is clever and what comes together is one of the best movies of the first part of the year. Really.

Its liberal-leaning plot, one that denounces materialist, cold-hearted corporate America in favor of the blue-collared stout of heart, is well formulated. The intricate robot world of Robot City is amazingly imaginative but overly attentive to detail.
