From Nick at Nite:

Man on Fire - I am not sure why this movie is called "Man on Fire." Only one character is actually set on fire. It should be called "Man chopping off or blowing off people's fingers and hands" - the reason for the name change should be obvious. This an extremely good movie. I am not just saying that because I crave violence. Basic premise, someone is kidnapped in Mexico every 12 hours, Denzel Washington is hired as a bodyguard, he is aloof and guarded, he falls for cute kid, cute kid is kidnapped, Denzel Washington is pissed, he must kill people. Sounds simple? It is. Still it works very well. I give this movie an "A."
