Orin D I found the chemistry between the principals electric enough to overlook the Swiss-cheese holes in the plot. Alan Alda doing a rare turn as a villain was excellent as well. Turn off the gotta make sense and just enjoy the ride. Orin Domenico Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/23/25 Full Review Carlos T Filme: Crime na Casa Branca Assistido: 23-1-24 Elenco: @realwesleysnipes @dianelane.officialpage @dianelane_gallery @thealanalda @marytylerxo Modelo: #suspense #policial #agentesecreto #espionagem Duração: 1h 48m Ano: 1997 Minha opinião: Como sempre eu digo, gosto de filmes inteligentes, bem que saber que quem é o inimigo normalmente é o vice ou alguém próximo ao presidente. Aqui digamos que coloca esta possibilidade. Wesley em época das vacas gordas faz uma boa dupla com Diane Lane que o faz o papel de agente do serviço secreto da Casa Branca. Wesley é um detetive da policia que esta investigando um Crime na Casa Branca. Mas com todas as dificuldades que os agentes da Casa Branca dificultam a investigação, mas ele não desiste e vai se aprofundando no crime, onde tentam incriminar o presidente, o filho do presidente, até que Wesley e Diane descobre que é uma conspiração contra o presidente. Um filme cheio de suspense e pistas que levam a lugares e descobrir que há algo maior. Boas atações de Wesley e Diane e outros artistas. Roteiro e enredo inteligente e bons. Vale apena assistir? Sim vale, não prejugue por ser de 97, pois é muito melhor que muitos filmes de hoje. Nota: 8 Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/14/24 Full Review Dick C It's an interesting casting in this motion picture, Murder at 1600, 1997...covering an American Actress, Diane Lane and American Actor, Wesley Snipes... Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/22/23 Full Review StephenPaul C The greatest 01 hour: and 47 minutes ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Starring Wesley Snipes and Alan Alda!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/04/23 Full Review Jack O When I first thought about this is going to be exciting like many action films you see today, and when I think about it after I've seen it I'm thinking "Mmm, it doesn't have a lot of action in it but still." My thoughts on it is that the film is mediocre. A secretary woman, Carla Town, is murdered in the White House and it is up to Homicide detective Harlan Regis, played by Wesley Snipes, to investigate the conspiracy while Secret Service works against him. He's assigned agent Chance, played by Diane Lane. Yeah, that's all I can do about this. Nothing more to say about this. It's a pretty forgettable movie. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 06/20/23 Full Review Steve D Completely predictable but entertaining. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews
