It's amazing how underrated this film is. The acting, direction, and screenplay are fantastic. One of the best suspense, mystery films ever.

While the story is beyond belief, it is a tight and well made thriller. Kevin Costner became a star because of his performance here.

Tyler Edwin Nestor

Thrilling, intense and engaging. Plus Kevin Costner was actually consistently convincing this time.

Underrated Costner film. Intense story and the cast great. Keeps you guessing and tense.

An 80's thriller with a surprising ending

A good movie to go in blind to, the plot will do nothing at all that you expect and the action will keep you on the edge of your seat.

Not bad, decent one-time watch. Not memorable.

A credible film that will surprise and delight.

Not bad. Your average 80’s action movie, but nothing more!

A modern thriller-romance found in the Pentagon. Costner's performance is balanced between intelligence and action.
