Daylight (1996)
Watching Sylvester Stallone trying to act is painful. Besides that, this movie is decent. It's different from other disaster thrillers in that it's a man-made disaster rather than a natural one (a getaway car crashes in a New York tunnel and sets off a chain reaction that collapses both ends of the tunnel and traps a handful of people inside) but the intensity is the same. I appreciate that not everyone makes it out alive, which adds a tiny glimmer of realism to an otherwise ridiculous film. The Oscar nom is a technical nom, in case anyone was curious. Watch for pre-Lord of the Rings Viggo Mortensen, but don't get too attached.
My Netflix rating: 3 stars
