5/10
not really anything that we haven't seen before
1 June 2006
Mostly, "Chain Reaction" is another action flick about some cool guy having to battle a bunch of seemingly invincible forces. In this case, Keanu Reeves gets framed for murder and has to go on the lam. In a way, it seems like this movie is just rehashing "The Fugitive" and "The Net". Still, I agree with a previous reviewer that the cast pretty much keeps this one afloat. Along with Reeves, there's Morgan Freeman, Rachel Weisz, Fred Ward, Kevin Dunn, Brian Cox, Joanna Cassidy and Tzi Ma (most recently seen in "The Ladykillers").

So, it's nothing special, but passable. As Keanu Reeves often says in movies: "Whoa".
