Audience Reviews for The Kidnapping of the President

An okay TV movie, there are a lot of stars in this movie, but the story isn't great. It has a couple of suspenseful scenes, but overall it's just okay.

Can Captain Kirk save the president? Yeah, this movie is predictable and cheesy, but hey, it's got Shatner!
