The Next Three Days is kind of a throwback to the classic action movies Hollywood put out in the mid-nineties - the 'one man versus the world' era of thrillers, in which lantern-jawed heroes fight to save their family against improbable odds

Managing to overcome the contrivances and implausibilities of the storyline, The Next Three Days succeeds through the sheer verisimilitude of the performances and direction.

If it didn't feel like the movie took three days to get through, this could have been a pretty good thriller.

This is Crowe's movie to carry and he does it with an earthy realism that reminds of the actor he is beneath the persona.

In the third act, both Haggis and his actors kick it into high gear, leading to a breathless chase sequence, the outcome of which is unpredictable to the last moments.

It's the kind of edge of your seat thriller that leaves you in constant suspense of how the situation will resolve.

It's laughably, eye-rollingly absurd, so you don't watch it and wonder, "Hey, why not?" You endure it and wonder, "So ... why did they do that?"

In its final half-hour, all the stops are pulled. The movie is still wildly implausible but at least it's hurtling forward.

Even with an actor of Crowe's skill, it's hard to believe the mild, thoughtful John would take to the mean streets of Pittsburgh for fake IDs, blast his way into drug houses and such.

The movie is a caper without playfulness or wit -- it's accomplished but not much fun.
