"Here’s a movie with a political conspiracy plot that’s all too real. Warren Beatty stars in this elliptical thriller, playing a reporter who insinuates himself into a murderously effective multi-national corporation. Startling, eccentric, and a scary-close approximation of the world we actually live in today, this film continues to stoke the twin fires of paranoia and mistrust."

". . . because it’s Don Siegel and film noir at its best. And because Lee Marvin is outstanding in it. Marvin became a friend after The Dirty Dozen [in which Cooper was one of the dozen]. Sadly, I failed to make a political thriller that Lee and I wanted to do, which had been coscripted by Christopher Hudson, with whom I co-wrote Overlord."

"My friend Audrey Gelman showed me this film as the beginning of my political education. While it is a documentary that provides a ton of backstory on the Clinton campaign and the art and science of electing a president, it has the pace and power of a good thriller produced by George Clooney with David Strathairn in at least one role with gravitas."

Jackie Chan still has it

This political action thriller was VERY entertaining. I've been a Jackie Chan fan from his earliest works and he's only gotten better over the years. This one has plenty of his signature action(though less comedic, more serious) matched with a very intense story line about justice being served. If you're into crime thrillers, you'll enjoy this one. Really worth a watch!
