I picked it up as a commitment. Should I add it to the collection or use it as a gift to a friend?

Thanks

After reading that review I'm almost afraid to admit I enjoyed it, but I did. Like most of Wesly Snipes movies it had allot of impractical situations. Most action and suspense movies do. Absolute Power was more suspenseful but you already knew whodunnit. In Murder at 1600 you don't so I really don't think it's right to draw the parallel. I liked it better than Art of War

I thought M1600 was a really good thriller, where as The Art of War sucked arse hard core. Absolutley hard core.....

I'd really take this review with a grain of salt that was provided at the URL above. The movie is not that *bad*. Just check your brain at the door as with most popcorn movies and you'll enjoy it. My two cents at least.

MURDER AT 1600

I thought this was very entertaining. Mindless Hollywood action/suspenser with likeable stars Wesley Snipes and Diane Lane. Snipes and Lane have a good chemistry together and both turn in good performances. Wesley Snipes replaced Bruce Willis at the last minute apparently.
