    • Goofs
      The opening scene where it shows an assassin assembling a revolver with a grip under the barrel for the left hand he also attaches a silencer to the barrel. He then adds a shoulder stock to the grip. The gap between the cylinder and the barrel is still exposed. Having a silencer is pointless because the gap is exposed and gas and sound will escape from there. In addition, he takes a speed loader with the cartridges already in it, removes the cartridges, and puts the round in one by one. The whole idea of the speed loader is to load them all at the same time.

    Absolute Bad

    Maybe the worst movie ever produced concerning the President and the Secret service. A complete and utter disgrace to the Presidents office and the secret service. Don't see this its horrible .. The Director clearly didn't know anything about what he was directing. Compare it to The West Wing and it makes you want to puke. I know this was before 9/11 but to think it was like this before you could think this was done in the 1970 when it came to details.

    Rubbish ..and no wonder none of the really went on to bigger roles after being in this movie except for the guy that is currently on Desperate Housewives but this must have been a straight to VHS movie if I ever seen one.

    Who would pay to see this.
