Movie Reviews of The Jackal - Collector's Edition
Movie Review: Major weak point!
Summary: 2 Stars
I heard so much about this movie but when I started watching it, I felt disappointed.At first, everything goes well... if you like spy movies! Yes, you can swallow it. But what I really didn't swallow was that Richard Gere (IRA) can always guess & predict what Bruce Willis (spy) is going to do next!
I mean come on, an IRA knows, predicts and does everything as if he can read Bruce's mind! This was stupid hole in the movie that I couldn't swallow or accept... so the movie gets down rated!
Yes, great actors names but awful movie!
Movie Review: My Quickie Review of this interesting action movie
Summary: 4 Stars
If you want to see Willis in a role other than the good guy this one is a keeper. He plays an asassin called the Jackal. It's a remake of the orginal film called "Day of the Jackal"..It has Richard Gere in a role that is normally played by a guy like Willis. It is my guess that they offered Willis the Gere role and he wanted a challange this time. He wanted to play the villian. He pulls it off in this one. Perhaps he might have the chance to play one again. It seems like he makes at least a half dozen movies per year.Movie Review: Horrible Hollywood dreck...

I bought this as one of those Blockbuster previously viewed specials for a couple bucks, thinking, how bad can it be?It's bad, really, really bad.
There is nothing romantic about being a terrorist for hire, yet Hollywood, with Bruce Willis in the uber-terrorist role, manages to pull it off. This is a movie that will offend your senses and your intelligence. Richard Gere is wasted, and there aren't even many of the quote-unquote "cool" explosions for the teenage boy set.
This sets the standard for lame-o, offensive action "thrillers."
Avoid. Even if you get it ultra cheap at a fire sale.
Movie Review: Fast moving , racey. A very clever remake.
Summary: 5 Stars
Willis plays a hired assassin named the Jackal, hired to kill the U.S. First lady. FBI agents hire Gere, to hunt down and stop the Jackal before he carries out his assignment. As Gere's persona in the movie says "its not him against us, its the other way around." Watch this movie, marvel at the action sequences and Willis going from one airport to the next with different disguises! Fantastic.Movie Review: Fast moving , racey. A very clever remake.
