Sigourney Weaver, Bruce Willis and Henry Cavill release their Madrid Thriller

The action thriller "The Cold Light of Day" starring Bruce Willis, Sigourney Weaver and Henry Cavill was released last week in Spain. 

The film which is shot almost entirely in Spain under the direction of the French Argelian- born Mabrouk El Mechri tells the story of Will Shaw (Henry Cavill), a young american whose family is kidnapped on a vacation in Spain. Will has only a few hours to find his family and save the lives of his loved ones, but while trying to do it, he finds himself in middle of a governmental conspiracy and discovers his father had a an obscure secret.

This action thriller has a classical starting point with a disappearance of characters followed by search and persecutions with a conspiration as a backround curtain.

Many of the action sequences are Madrid based and, although well shot, seem to follow the tendency of the Hollywood cinema to repeat the typical Spanish topics that are totally invented and ridiculous which actually have nothing to do with Spain.

The film produced by Intrepid Pictures, Film Rites, Fria Luz Del Dia, A.I.E., Galavis Film, Picture Machine and Summit Entertainment will be released in the US in September 2012.
