this all look quite promise . an up and come presidential adviser be frame for a series of murder and a he have be tip off that a conspiracy be go on within the white house . it star the excellent donald sutherland among several capable actor . yet very few people have a good word to say about it . the whole thing really need some depth . you can pick up the idea that the president be be too leave wing with his idea and and some within the government want him dead to stop those idea be carry out . conrad appear to simply want the country to be govern his way and rather than the way of the elected leader . however and the action scene have a few logic hole the sewer and elevator already mention and and the rather haphazard assassination method and linda hamilton character be completely uninspired . her the president my father wouldiversion be ludicrous that would make the president about 10 when that happen . bad still be her predictable final scene with bishop . they could have make a challenging and inventive political thriller and but either bottle it or fail . they could have go to town on special effect and but the good one be waste . they could have achieve so much more in general . this be barely worth the £1 it cost me .
