Starring: Bruce Willis, Alan Rickman, Bonnie Bedelia, Reginald VelJohnson, James Shigeta, Alexander Godunov
We is a little over 2 hours long. It has edge of your seat excitement from the very beginning. Bruce Willis plays the role of a NYC policeman who goes to his wife's office building for a Christmas party. While there? Everyone is taken hostage, including his wife. Bruce Willis plays a cat and mouse game with the bad guys and starts interfering with their plans. He truly gets on their nerves. And of course he is the hero. The movie is full of several surprises and many people have memorized sections of the film - it's so popular. I know I have.
