Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Weir, an Australian filming in this country for the first time, has succumbed to blandness.

Witness warms up as the attraction builds between Ford, McGillis and Haas -- all performing excellently through this portion.

fresh:
Playing John Book allowed viewers the opportunity to see Ford the actor instead of Ford the action/adventure icon. It is one of the few times he has been given the opportunity to play in a straight drama.

Harrison Ford has never given a better performance in a movie.
