Watching the cool preview for Denzel Washington's new movie Deja Vu put me in the mood for a good ol' action thriller, preferably starring the man himself. A journey through the bowels of Netflix led me to these two interesting 1998 reviews of the old Denzel Washington/Annette Bening/Bruce Willis movie, The Siege, in which Arab terrorists blow up various parts of New York City, causing the military to declare martial law and suspend due process in the city. The reviews make interesting reads, especially the takes on the racial and political implications, given that these were pre-9/11 reviews of a pre-9/11 film.
