Crudely effective political thriller. (Plot Formula 1-B: the military can't sit by and watch a couple of Gorbachev and Bush look-alikes sign a disarmament pact; they've got to assassinate somebody.) The storyline is decently complicated, but the pace (to say nothing of the camerawork) is too pell-mell to take much notice. Gene Hackman, Joanna Cassidy, Tommy Lee Jones, John Heard; directed by Andrew Davis. (1989) — Duncan Shepherd
