HORSEMEN (a review)



A mystery/thriller starring Dennis Quaid.

The story: a detective who has become distant from his sons following the death of his wife struggle to reconnect to them while getting pulled into a series of murders by a group inspired by the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse.

Was it good?

It was okay. If you want a mystery/thrill then this one is good enough to watch. If you just want something really cool, then this doesn't make the cut. The problem ultimately is the interweaving of the two stories -- Quaid trying to reconnect with his sons and the Four Hoursemen, which plays out predictably and doesn't have the depth of feeling that it should have. Still, I'm a big Dennis Quaid fan and this movie is good enough that if you are a fan of Quiad you should check it out.

*** SLIGHT RECOMMEND (for mystery/thriller fans) ***
