Seven years after Outland, Peter Hyams and Sean Connery reunited for this lazily scripted mystery thriller. It’s a partnership between director and star that didn’t work in Outland and definitely does not work here as Connery again appears to be sleepwalking his way through the film. It doesn’t help that the writers seem to accept Connery’s weaknesses as an actor, in this case accents, by ... read more

“Lt. Colonel Alan Caldwell, Sean Connery (James Bond, Dragonheart) is an Army officer who left the military police over a controversy in a drunk driver case. Jay Austin, Mark Harmon (From the Earth to the Moon, St. Elsewhere) and Caldwell hate each other. Donna Caldwell, Meg Ryan (Joe versus the Volcano, You've Got Mail) is Lt.Caldwell's daughter. Father and daughter have a good relationship. Jay and Donna are instantly attracted to each other, but he does not like her dad. Jay is investigating a murder that took place on The Presidio, a military base in San Francisco. The plot of this movie is more for a television series than for the big screen. Plenty of car chases around San Francisco.

Although I purchased the tape because of Meg Ryan, whom I very much like, she has very littl” read more

"30.9. The word "avrage" has never fitted to a movie this well than with Presidio. Totally forgettable but still entertaining flick."

We are also made to believe that Connery and Jack Warden’s sergeant fought together in Vietnam, when there looks to be a difference of about thirty years between the two (In reality there’s only ten). Major flaws aside, the plot is half decent as a female MP from the Presidio Army base in San Francisco is shot dead during an in” read more
