Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
For what it is, Clear and Present Danger is fun to sit through.
– Desson Thomson,

fresh:
In a film that opens with the sight of a waving American flag, subtlety may not be foremost on anyone's mind. But Mr. Ford's wary intelligence does wonders for a potentially one-dimensional character.
– Janet Maslin,

rotten:
There's a glimmer of interest in the film's ideological contortions, but as a commercial action thriller this is inflated and sluggish.

fresh:
Narrative complexity and momentum make this a true cinematic equivalent of an absorbing page-turner.

fresh:
This is the third movie with Jack as its hero, so he is a known quantity -- a humanist spook with an overdeveloped moral sense -- but Ford, playing the part for the second time, knows how to keep his earnestness fresh.
