More guile, less guns.

i liked it and i can see the comparison. but i think Neeson's character was in the intelligence counter intelligence filed with combat training so he could take care of himself when the stuff hit the fan. Denzel's character was more of the solder that was sent into a situation and did what ever he needed to do to get the job done shoot first ask questions later.
