Rereleased, at least in Phoenix.I don't need car chases or shoot'em'ups, but I do need a story in which I care about the people. I didn't walk out on this film, altho several in the theater did, but there's just not enough there for me to recommend it. 'Slow', some call it. Indeed.
I LOVE 'people' movies with at least SOME characters I can care about. Some I love and own are 'Around the Bend', 'Off the Map', 'The Upside of Anger', 'The Best Years of Our Lives', 'Deja Vu', 'Good Will Hunting', 'Grand Canyon', 'Groundhog Day' (which has the best Bill Murray role I've ever seen him in), lots of John Sayles's films, etc.
'The Passenger' just teased me; I kept waiting for something to happen. Nothing ever did; Jack just dies while taking a nap.
I'm glad it's rereleased for those who appreciate it.
