Charles Bronson gives us here almost a light interpretation. He is the chief bodyguard of the wife of the president of the USA. Of course she hates him. And of course some people try to assassinate him several times. Without revealing the evolution of the story, we can say that we are in the conventional and nothing surprises. Even the identity of the chief villain, which the typecasting designates from its first appearance.
The action sequences, which come at regular intervals, are on the level of a TV movie from the 70s, anemic, unspectacular, lazy and poor. There is a clear lack of means and these action sequences look like DIY (at the time CGI porn was not widespread) without much success. But fortunately, the film is not there, but in the acting of Charles Bronson, who apart from his usual cop character has here a romantic dimension with two courtesans. The first, his colleague, Jan Gan Boyd, is ostentatious, even if this relationship is not very credible, but remains plausible, which finally provides some density to the whole. The second, with the president, played by Jill Ireland (whose dimension as Charles Bronson's wife in the city is impossible to ignore), which will evolve in the course of the story. Charles Bronson manages to have multiple facial expressions.
