It is entirely possible that everyone had already seen this. I had definitely seen this in my freshman year of college with my friend Alex. Sarah started thinking she had seen it about halfway through. By the end, Adam wasn't entirely sure that he hadn't see it either. Anyway, it's not bad. It's not good really, but it's pretty functional as an action film that won't make you think.
Kim Basinger is a science teacher in a house that a teacher definitely can't afford who gets kidnapped. She hot wires a landline and manages to call Chris Evans who then goes on a crime spree in an effort to help her. He is unable to prevent the kidnapping of her son and husband, but he does get his hands on the thing the kidnappers are after: a video of them robbing and killing some drug dealers. They're cops. But because this is a movie William H. Macy is a good cop who helps Chris Evans take down those bad cops instead of keeping quiet after he finds out what his coworkers did. ACAB.
As I said before, it's not bad but it's nothing special. It's got a really long third act and a very silly end credit sequence involving people looking at their phones. Adam was mad that Jessica Biel was only in it for a few minutes, but otherwise we were mostly just fine with it.
