I'm still surprised at how well The Negotiator is doing so far. Did not think it was such a well-liked movie.

As am I. I'm shocked it has only 2 more votes than The Professional, which I always thought was a hugely popular film.

I will say, I see tons of copies of The Negotiator in my travels. I will have to pick it up some day and give it another look. I first saw it at the drive-in and I didn't think it was anything special.
