Reviews
This proudly apolitical drama can probably be embraced by people on either side of the ideological fence.
It examines the danger of power without leadership, and it also reveals what can happen when your home is threatened.
An absorbing, tension-filled and intelligently-written drama...Taps has aged like fine wine.
Fans of Penn and Cruise should enjoy this very early glimpse at their heroes, and Hutton (one of Hollywood’s all-time most underrated actors) holds the movie together.
