An interesting take on your typical, conspiracy-political thriller. Several characters are present at a political summit where an assasination attempt is made on the president. For the first hour of the film, we see the same 20 minutes over and over, but from different perspectives. These include a news director, a secret service agent, a tourist, the president, and a suspect. The remaining 30 minutes show the satisfying conclusion, which brings all the characters together. Good performances - especially Quaid, who manages to elevate anything he's in.
