	DVD Review: Chain Reaction
		"Chain" is the second film after director Andrew Davis brought us "The Fugitive" in 1994 - although certainly not one of the worst thrillers in recent years, the film tends to stick in that middle ground that would make it more suitable for watching on cable, or for renting on this new DVD from Fox.
		Overall, "Chain Reaction" isn't a bad film - it just stays rather average and generic while the talent involved could have taken the film further.
		The exciting Jerry Goldsmith score really gets a workout throughout the film; it really does a nice job of enveloping the viewer without getting in the way of the sound effects and all of the other sounds that are present in an action film like this one.

	Film
		The films produced in Chicago and/or distributed by Chicago companies were increasingly important nationally and internationally as U.S. firms tried to compete with imported films for domination of film screens.
		Several “race film” companies (companies run largely by African Americans who made films for a fl audience) were formed during the silent film era in Chicago as well.
		All of the race film firms were profoundly undercapitalized and suffered from the lack of strong distribution networks.

	Chain Reaction (1996)
		In the older film, the prime factor was a flawed drug whose side effects needed to be kept under wraps by the baddies; this was a believable motivation but it doesn’t compare with the world-altering impact the new fuel would have.
		Chain Reaction appears in an aspect ratio of approximately 1.85:1 on this single-sided, dual-layered DVD; the image has been enhanced for 16X9 televisions.
		Frankly, these were fairly minor during most of the film, but they seemed significant enough to knock my grade down to a “B+”; I can excuse a few very small defects and keep a DVD at “A”-level, but Chain Reaction slightly exceeded my tolerance level.

	Chain Reaction: Jem Cohen. By Tom Charity. Cinema Scope Magazine Online
		Call it “Present Shock.” A melancholy photo collage of chain stores, malls, and conglomerated concrete spaces unfurls as a single, anonymous ambiance, a desolate spiritual limbo that could be anywhere.
		Filming in the darkness using the camera’s eerie green night-vision she looks like a ghost—and though she eventually lands a minimum wage job, there’s little reason to hope it will revitalize her.
		But when you make a film that is half documentary the risk is that the documentary elements make the narrative look false—you’re shattering that bubble.

	Filmtracks: Chain Reaction (Jerry Goldsmith)
		Chain Reaction: (Jerry Goldsmith) In an attempt to continue the success of the films inspired by the Academy Award-nominated The Fugitive in 1993, Fox's Chain Reaction offers another variation on the good-guy running from a good-natured cop routine.
		The detraction from Chain Reaction are the areas in which Goldsmith takes identical material and expands upon it in Executive Decision, including the direct crossover of the trumpets and horns that alternate identically in both films (and most notably in the meaty "Ice Chase" cue here).
		Overall, Chain Reaction works better than Executive Decision on album partly because of its own design and partly because nearly all major cues in Chain Reaction made the equally short album (only one major piece is missing).

	MovieFreak.com - "Chain Reaction" UMD Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		“Chain Reaction” predictably unravels just in time for the good guys to outrun another big explosion at the end.
		This film believe it or not is almost 10 years old and the picture holds up quite well on the PSP’s portable screen.
		The premise of the film is interesting but nothing good comes of it.

	CHAIN REACTION
		The resulting chain reaction could resemble an exquisite corpse, an anarchist wet dream, ant colonies, the Mouse Trap game, or a premeditated sequence of events that would of made Hitchcock green with envy.
		The chain reaction will be a series of reactions in which one product of a reacting set is a reactant in the following set.
		While the ultimate chain reaction will be determined by the class we are going to impose a few limits/parameters to ensure a successful event.

	Chain Reaction
		Chain Reaction is a new action-thriller from director Andrew Davis, the brains behind such box office hits as Under Siege and The Fugitive.
		Chain Reaction is really nothing more than a poor man's The Fugitive, a rather disjointed and disappointing chase thriller which never quite recreates the boundless energy of the earlier effort.
		Their plotlines are remarkably similar: innocent man is framed for murder by 'the corporation' and spends the rest of the movie eluding the cops, led by a grizzled veteran, and solving the mystery.

	An economic 'Chain Reaction'
		If you lost your lower Michigan Avenue parking space to "Chain Reaction's" film crews recently, find some comfort in the fact that the city and the state will gain greatly from your inconvenience.
		Illinois' take from "Chain Reaction" will be about $15 million to $20 million, predicts Illinois Film Office chief Ron Ver Kuilen.
		Utilizing the area's talent pool -- including extras -- also enriches the local economy, and "Chain Reaction" producer Arne Schmidt and associate producer Carlos Sanchez estimate 70 percent to 80 percent of the cast and crew are local, an estimate that Ver Kuilen backs up.

	Polymerase Chain Reaction
		The polymerase chain reaction was introduced to the scientific community at a conference in October 1985.
		PCR reaction, a small quantity of the target DNA is added to a test tube with a buffered solution containing DNA polymerase, oligonucleotide primers, the four deoxynucleotide building blocks of DNA, and the cofactor MgCl2.
		Primer annealing and extension occur together as the reaction incubates at the lower temperature and raises to the denaturation temperature of the next cycle.

	Argonne is star in 'Chain Reaction'
		"Chain Reaction" should delight Argonne employees looking for big explosions, exhausting chase scenes, fiendish double-crosses and a chance to see their workplace on the silver screen.
		Many Argonne employees who participated as extras in the film won't be disappointed.
		But some others will be, especially those who spent a cold morning trudging up the ramp to Building 364, then running back down again -- all for about three-quarters of a second of screen time.

	Joey the Film Geek: Reviews - "War of the Worlds"
		In fact, Steven Spielberg is probably the only filmmaker in the world who is confident enough and skilled enough to deliver a film this ambitious and of this quality in a year's time.
		Prior to this film, the only thing I'd ever seen her in was "Man on Fire," and I was amazed at how she held her own against Denzel Washington.
		Tim Robbins is also in the film, and even though it's a small role, he's very effective.

	GateWorld - Stargate SG-1 Season Four: "Chain Reaction"
		Causing such a chain reaction with the gate still open could have disastrousconsequences, especially if the gate is not destroyed by the blast.
		Maybourne has many aliases (a hundred, if one is to believe the man himself), one of which is "Charles Bliss." He said that he and Senator Kinsey "go way back," perhaps implying a connection between Maybourne and the NID and Kinsey's attempt to shut down the Stargate program two and a half years ago ("Politics").
		The original ending to "Chain Reaction" saw Maybourne walking free and Jack therelooking the other way, according to writer/producer Joseph Mallozzi, but the show's writers and producers decided that would be out of character for Jack.

	If You Don't Get It... We Don't Care! (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Chain Reaction fits these loves of Hollywood to a T. It involves the work of a group of scientists to create cheap sustainable power by splitting the oxygen and hydrogen from water.
		The trouble is this process is very expensive and is really only used for fuel cells rather then an alternative fuel.
		In the beginning of the film, the scientists will make a breakthrough, and cheap sustainable power will be created from water for the first time.

	Latino Review
		Even though the film can be heavily dramatic at times, it’s not without a healthy share of chills thrills and visual effects.
		Even the color palette of the film which could have been just another rip-off of the style made popular by “Seven” all serve to establish mood and support the story.
		The film is set in Los Angeles and was probably shot in Canada, but Lawrence and his crew have managed to give the picture the feel of a graphic novel drawn on fl paper.

	Chain Reaction (1996)
		To be fair these doesn't get too much in the way of the film's basic thriller plot, which is conducted fairly well, even if the science-fiction device is really only a gimmick to hang it all on.
		It is him that one watches in the film rather than Keanu Reeves or anyone else.
		Morgan Freeman is far too absorbing an actor to suddenly become unsympathetic and the film has made the pursuing FBI into far too one-dimensional villains to make them sympathetic.

	About Web pages, modems & such...
		Whatever the case, this file is now required reading for all Chain Reaction employees so they might better understand how their own actions might be viewed from a customer's perspective.
		The interesting thing, of course, is that Chain Reaction goes out of its way to treat customers with the respect they deserve, and the owners (of which I am one) put in 90+ hour work weeks and are, guaranteed, not getting rich.
		I don't think the experiment will ever be tried at Chain Reaction; I just don't have the guts to try, and I'd like to think that people deserve better.

	The Austin Chronicle Film Listings
		With this latest film Chain Reaction, Davis has little more on his creative mind than scoring another hit and has left nothing to chance by shamelessly copying the formula that inexplicably made The Fugitive a smash with both audiences and reviewers alike.
		There are a few nice special effects, and Jerry Goldsmith's score works overtime to make the rather bland proceedings a bit more exciting, but, ultimately, any movie in which even Morgan Freeman manages to give a lackluster performance can only be considered a seriously botched job.
		Although this horror remake isn't as suspenseful or emotionally draining as its influential 1974 predecessor, the film almost makes up for that with its overriding weirdness.

		Also not sure they really wanted their tire fixed...by this point a sag wagon was probably a very pleasant thought in their minds.
		On the other hand, the recording I made for her of The Nightmare Before Christmas (a very excellent Tim Burton film, highly recommended!) is exceptional riding music.

		Berlin's Wall-to-mall Potsdamer Platz provided an ideal context for this movie about corporate creep and architectural anonymity—I saw it in the bowels of the Sony Center, a building that actually appears in the film, along with airport hotels, theme parks, strip malls, and mixed-use complexes from four continents.
		Most of the locations are pointedly unplaceable—they could be anywhere, and are everywhere.
		An Arcades Project for the age of globalization, Chain, at its best, has the oneiric power and fierce political intelligence of a Chris Marker cine-essay.
