Description:
Firewall stars Harrison Ford as bank security expert Jack Stanfield, whose specialty is designing infallible theft-proof financial computer systems. But there's a hidden vulnerability in the system he didn't account for - himself. When a ruthless criminal mastermind (Paul Bettany) kidnaps his family, Jack is forced to find a flaw in his system and steal $100 million. With the lives of his wife and children at stake and under constant surveillance, he has only hours to find a loophole in the thief's own impenetrable system of subterfuge and false identities to beat him at his own game.

Harrrison Ford brings his reliable brand of focused intensity to Firewall, a family-in-peril thriller that fits Ford like a comfortable old sweater. The venerable action star is visibly growing older now, but he's got a quiet, simmering quality here that perfectly suits his role as Jack Stanfield, Vice President of security at a large Seattle bank that's recently upgraded to a state-of-the-art computer security system (resulting in conspicuous Dell product placement throughout the film). Jack's the only one who can safely crack the system, so he's targeted by a would-be robber (Paul Bettany) whose jittery crew of thugs and hackers kidnaps Jack's wife (Sideways star Virginia Madsen), daughter, and young son, threatening to kill them if Jack doesn't transfer $100 million into the robber's secret offshore account. Like Bruce Willis in 2005's Hostage, Ford rises above the film's familiar generic trappings, and British director Richard Loncraine maintains a low-key escalation of tension that keeps Firewall on track toward a routine but satisfying conclusion. Supporting roles for Alan Arkin, Robert Forster and Robert Patrick add little to the film's turnabout plotting, but fans of Mary Lynn Rajskub (better known as ace computer nerd "Chloe" on the hit series 24) will enjoy her performance here as a loyal secretary who factors into Stanfield's bid to outsmart his captors. Firewall may not be an instant Ford classic like The Fugitive, but it's comparable to Ford's 2000 thriller What Lies Beneath in terms of overall intelligence and crowd-pleasing suspense. --Jeff Shannon

This movie was suspenseful, a fugitive quality movie. Harrison Ford was great and never seems to age. I like the selection of actors and the scene dynamics. The Action, music, and acting were suspenseful.
Plot: Jack is head of computer security, at a local bank in Seattle with 27 branches and an airtight security system. Jack misdirects hackers by leading them to false accounts. The thieves realize they can't penetrate the system, so seek an inside job.

I had seen this movie long before I bought it, and I think it is one of Harrison Ford's finest moments. I have always considered Ford to be nearly the best actor - and this movie is a classic. He so well portrays a father, a loving husband, an office working man, and everyday guy, a desperate man, but he plays well an older man who has real human limitations, fears, and frustrations. This is an ABSOLUTE MUST SEE for anyone, but especially Harrison Ford fans.

In this movie, Harrison Ford plays a bank security executive whose family is kidknapped by a gang of thugs who demand he crack the banks software security (which Harrison himself designed) or else lose his family.
This would not be such a bad action flick if not for the fact the Harrison's age makes the action scenes seem unrealistic. Harrison Ford is no Chuck Norris and his grande finale fight against a squad of young thugs is lauphable, not credible. In addition, it would have helped if ... Read More

Mark Twain once said that the difference between the right word and the word that's almost right is the difference between lightning and a lightning bug. Firewall, starring Harrison Ford, and the still exquisite Virginia Madsen, is a firefly. It has all the elements of a taut thriller, highly pressurized situations, loathsome baddy, sympathetic good guys, excellent production value, acting, and cinematography. The only thing missing is the thrill.
This is such familiar country for Harrison ... Read More

*** 2006. Directed by the British director Richard Loncraine. The family of the head security officer of a Seattle bank is kidnapped by a gang of bank thieves. Average thriller for a rainy sunday night - it seems to rain a lot in Seattle - FIREWALL is just popcorn movie, quickly seen, quickly forgotten. Well, yes, as Mary Lynn Rajskub plays the secretary of Harrison Ford, every time she calls him Jack, I was teleported into a 24 - Seasons 1 - 6 episode. Can we call that originality ? Already forgotten.
