Another Eastwood Hit
By a customer from Stroud England , 16 Aug 2004[Highly rated reviewer]
The older he gets , the better he gets. In the Line Of Fire is a taut fast moving thriller from the first frames right to the end. Director Wolfgang Petersen's sure touch and Eastwood's laconic dialogue combines tension, humour and a bit of romance.
Eastwood plays a world weary secret agent, Frank Horrigan, who discovers a plot to kill the president. The assasin (the incomparable John Malcovich) is a loner with a grudge and former CIA hit man. He teases and twists Horrigan and one is never quite sure how it will all end.
Briallantly written and edited and with an excellent supporting cast including Rene Russo and John Mahoney. I can strongly reccomend this film as an excellent night's entertainment.- Was this review helpful to you?

(16)Good background noise.
By Kirkcudbright (22 reviews) , 03 Feb 2013Don't know why I like this! It's pretty predictable. I think it's nostalgia- this was one of my first 'dates'- he gave me the old 'a group of us are going to the cinema', and then everyone else couldn't make it- smooth. By far not the worst line I've ever heard. I hear he's a mathmatician now. So- the film- I watched it while I was working from home and wanted something on in the background, and it's good for that.- Was this review helpful to you?

A good film worth watching
By Breath-taking (15 reviews) , 16 Dec 2012I loved this film, its gripping and keeps you guessing. Its final action scene was a little anti-climactic yet I thought it was a good watch. You really got to know the characters and while it is long its worth every minute. I thoroughly recommend watching this film- Was this review helpful to you?

Pretty good
By Lelboy (269 reviews) from East London , 22 Jun 2011This is not one of Clint's best, but certainly entertains - with the evil John Malkovitch doing what he does well - act!
Little curious why 'flocoyle' questions Malkovitch being able to do this and Johnny English - it's called being a proficient actor, and taking on many and various roles. Nowt to do with money, I suspect, just a job which he and Clint Eastwood do consummately well..- Was this review helpful to you?
