The ridiculous dialogue, story development bordered on comical. The amount of times each character reversed roles from 'hunter' to 'hunted' as an ongoing plot device only peaked when Travolta's character finally uttered the line, "we're the same, you and I." Honestly, the best part of the movie was the credit roll, with a backdrop of flying eagles, rolling vistas, and cloud covered mountain peaks with a fine guitar piece accompanying. Almost made you forget about the arrow through the face. Almost.

The script has the integrity of a high school screenplay. Character development stops at the artificial pretense of the protagonist and cannot be recovered. Even the best cinemaphotpgraphy cannot improve such a weak story line.

Too many back and forth moments... Should of just killed each other when they had the chance. Instead there's constant inevitable escapes and role reversals.
