One must first learn to heal people to be great. To hurt people is easy.

Most of us have unhealthy thoughts and emotions that have either developed as a result of trauma or hardships in their childhood, or the way they were raised.

It is a lot harder now to be a police officer than what it used to be.

One of the reasons why people - particularly young people - love action movies is because what they are really looking for is justice.

Action films are great, but an action film that has characters that are compelling and a story that people can care about is something even better. We love to see action heroes that are vulnerable, that are sensitive, that are family people, that are accessible.

I think people are frustrated in this society, where predators prey upon normal, law-abiding citizens, and you never see justice in the courtroom. In my films, the predators don't get away with it.

I've been a police officer for over 20 years, and I've investigated murders and all kinds of different crimes.
