Warning: there is colourful effects/flashing effects/terrorism/drugs/medical/references to Russia, terrorism and underage

It wasn't me: briefly; Secret Service Agent Pete Garrison [Michael Douglas:] he until a short time ago was the Secret Service of the President of the United States of America and the First Lady, but now is on the run for a crime he didn't commit. Secret Service Agent David Breckinridge [Kiefer Sutherland:] he is leading the chase and charge to capture Garrison, and I am sure that there is nothing personal in it... Oh yes did I forget to mention; they were once best friends until Garrison slept with Breckinridge's wife.

Generally speaking: the framework and pacing of this 108 minute film is... well this is going to sound confusing, but slow and steady with attempts of being quicker than what it actually is... in hindsight you are very much aware of the time not really moving.

Action; there is plenty of chasing, gunfire and the only action sequence and tell you to look out for is this type of chopper being taken care of and there is about it really.

Character developments and performances; because this film is a mystery all I can say about them really is they are solidly good and the performances of those character developments are reflected in the performances. But let's be completely honest this film would have really struggled or really gone to pieces without Douglas or/and Sutherland: individually or together they really do try to keep this film upwardly mobile

This film receives: 5/10, this film is mixed; as I have already indicated in one way or another everything just sticks to the script and consequently it gets given the mark it does, I mean if you have seen it before I would recommend watching it once, but it is very much one of those films that you can only see once or like myself see it once every large gap in the middle, I think I have seen this film may be three times and the last two times I think was to produce some kind of content under a different name or now this name. It does have 2 Nominees to its name; Golden Trailer Awards 2006 Golden Trailer Best Thriller Black Reel Awards 2007 Black Reel Best Director Clark Johnson
