Carol C 07/13/2024 The city of San Francisco always looks good on film. As to the plot, it's predictable as are a lot of the character tropes. Sean Connery does a competent job, as does Meg Ryan. I thought Mark Harmon was flat and uninteresting. Certainly no Dirty Harry! I must have seenthis in the 80s, but it wasn't special enough to remember. See more David B 10/01/2023 I'm biased because San Francisco is dear to me. The acting from the cast tells each of characters' story very well, especially from Sean Connery. Relative to other films, I couldn't say that this one blew my mind, but it's not as embarassing as Nowhere to Land (2000), which is barely compelling just enough to sit through. This movie is also better than Citizen Jane (2009), which was also pretty weak. If I had to pick The Presidio over The Avengers, I would watch The Presidio. See more John H 04/09/2023 Solid rating. I have 35 years…all the services. Two wars. I've seen it/lived it on both sides. I know the stress between officer and enlisted. So, to me, these tensions were more than skin deep. Scenes, good. Dialogue kept my interest up…no flat cliches. Couple guys in each other's faces. Cute girl-Hot guy clashes. Familiar turf. All great for the main course. Hour and a half of fun. And this is 2023. Third time with this one. See more Steve D 03/02/2023 The actors work well together and the story is fun. See more Jack S 01/29/2023 A touch of class provided by the presence of Connery and Warden plus, a couple pretty good chase scenes unfortunately can't elevate this sub-standard effort. The director and screenwriter are simply going through the conventional motions here and the result contains little suspense or intrigue. Most of the rest of the cast is also fine, but Harmon lacks charisma and hasn't a whit of chemistry with either Connery or love interest Ryan. Instead, check out Hyam's earlier Running Scared for a more worthwhile law enforcement themed actioner. See more tom w 09/25/2022 Ecclesiastes 1:9 says there is nothing new under the sun. So why expect it? I just sat back & watched actors I enjoy practicing their craft together. See more Read all reviews
