Firewall
One of those movies in which all the main character has to do is dial 911 and the entire, flawed plot of the villain would collapse. Mood and pacing are excellent, but barely make up for the huge lapses in logic and neglect for common sense. At times, hilarious, it was so cliched. Harrison Ford even has a catch phrase. "I'm going to get my dog!" Laugh-out-loud funny. One bright spot is the comic relief delivered by sit-com wallflower Mary-Lynn Rajskub as Ford's secretary. The shot of her holding the rescued dog at the end was worth the price of admission. Otherwise, this movie will be remembered as another step in the decline of Harrison Ford's career.
