Siskel and Ebert reviews an 1993 American political action thriller film "In the Line of Fire" in July 9, 1993. Starring Clint Eastwood, John Malkovich and Rene Russo. The film is about a disillusioned and obsessed former CIA agent who attempts to assassinate the President of the United States and the Secret Service agent who tracks him. Eastwood's character, Frank Horrigan, is the sole active-duty Secret Service agent who is still remaining from the detail that had guarded John F. Kennedy in Dallas, Texas, at the time of his assassination in 1963. Both of them really liked it a lot, for the cast particularly Eastwood's performance and Malkovich was a terrific villain. I totally agree with Gene and Roger, too. I thought it was truly intelligent and entertaining. Clint Eastwood was a really good actor with his superb performance as a sole active-duty, veteran agent who felt blames himself for the assassination of JFK, then he finds a ruthless killer by arrest hm or excecute him, and he finally retires. Anyway, it was a really suspenseful, exciting, ingenious, action thriller film. A marginal thumbs up for me on "In the Line of Fire".

In the Line of Fire (1993) 3.5/4 👍👍👍
