Reviews for Clear and Present Danger
Danger is just an overblown attempt to latch onto already-waning "Just Say No" sentiment in the U.S. (it was released in 1994). No dice.
The uneven flow is as likely to lead to a snoozing viewer as to one on the edge of their seat.
Clear and Present Danger isn't quite up to the very high standard set by The Hunt for Red October, but it's a genuine cut above Patriot Games.
A solid government thriller, but often hard to follow. Lots of talking, but a satisfying climax.
