Shaun Myburg: They say remakes should be good enough so that they themselves could spawn a remake... Interesting theory. TTCA certainly is a good movie, but good enough is the question, having never seen the original, although I now intend to, I thought this version was a clever well acted movie. It was good to see one of my fave actresses, Rene Russo, given the chance to play a sexy role, which any other women over 40 tends to shy away from. She was to say the least... an absolute stunner! Brosnan gave his usual suave performance, always cool, calm and collected. Being a film by John McTieren, one expected more action, but none the less a very enjoyable film.

Carmen: Exciting, fresh, time worthwhile spent.

Isobel Whitfield: Very enjoyable. Very sexy love scene, I would definately recommend it.

Andre Swanepoel: Excellent show that keeps you guessing.

Guinevere Vos: Absolute gem of a film. Loved every minute of it. This considering that I am not a Brosnan fan.

Darren Talberg: Slow at beginning but picks up later.
