Quite simply a well-made, well-written and wonderfully acted movie. Eastwood is classic as grizzled Secret Service Agent Frank Horrigan and Rene Russo
holds her own as partner (and love interest) Lilly Raines. But the movie's
greatness rests on the shoulders of John Malkovich as "Booth". He captures
this character's rage and hatred, as well as his humanity oddly enough.
Personally I think this was his best performance and should have received an
Oscar for it (But I loved Tommy Lee Jones in The Fugitive as well that year). Overall a great movie to see you want to peek into an assassin's mind and be
on the edge of your seat the whole way through. Enjoy!!
