This movie is an insane distillation of 90s style
I had never seen this Gene Hackman movie (and I love Gene Hackman)...but only in the last 1/3! LOL
This movie is thoroughly drenched in 90s style, to a comical degree...All these dudes with their hair done up in ridiculous ways....fake computer enhancement of images....bad 3D animation of satellites flying around the world...and Will Smith.
And the cast! All acting as cliche as you can imagine
Jake Busey - Jack Black - Lisa Bonet - Jon Voight - Scott Caan - Jason Lee - Gabriel Byrne - Anna Gunn!Only watch for comic effect
- oi! it's a great film - a classic tony scott movie. and gene hackman's character riffs off his earlier work in "the conversation"hans_glib
- I thought the opening scene was pretty realistic, though and considering this was well before 9/11. The writer was on to something.********
- Jon Voight is completely styled to look like Robert McNamara in this.********
- Great ahead-of-its-time action thriller, over the top à la Tony Scott but he always delivered and knew how to grab your attention from start to finish.spl33nidoru
- and... Lisa Bonet !_me_
