...helped bring us last year’s divinely dreadful Godsend (in fact, if you had any sense, you didn’t see that one either). Apparently, heavenly lightning and/or mediocre studio executives strike twice and some moviegoers will now have to sit through the drudgery that is Hide and Seek...

The limos can "access underground parking structures that do not accommodate trucks" and "have tinted windows that can hide an improvised explosive device from outside." The document calls for the deployment of three limos, each carrying 12 or more compressed-gas cylinders to create a "full fuel-air explosion by venting flammable gas into a confined space and then igniting it." It suggests painting the cylinders yellow to falsely...
