1/5 Improbable plot with unbearably bad acting
  by Patrick Nava (San Francisco, CA)
Okay - You've got the Vice Presidential plane (with David Keith aboard) traveling over the Pacific Ocean without Naval escort fighters, in a tropical storm that should have been predicted and avoided. The storm puts the plane down near an unknown island (Barago!). No emergency call, no secondary channel, no emergency transponder beeping after the plane goes down. And last but not least, only one Secret Service Agent onboard (Mariel Hemingway). The President orders a search for the "Second most powerful man in the World" Duh.... The President comes across as a real low I.Q. doofus. The Naval Admiral is also an idiot.

After some "A-Team type" gun battles, the Guerillas take the VP hostage for a large ransom (what else?). Mariel takes only a 9mm subgun, instead of an assault rifle, from the scumbags. The Guerilla leader is especially obnoxious in the acting department. I mean, low-down, amateur, stinking bad acting. Hemingway and Keith must have taken the lead from the extras; because they were just as bad. You'll wonder why the person who wrote the dialogue wasn't left on the island; where everything else about this movie should have been left. Oh, and it seemed like they hired some pretty bad Samoan or Hawaiian actors for this stinker. They grunt a lot.

If you can stand just killing time and watching a [horrible] movie, then go ahead. Heck, you can go to the "John" a few times, go out for some pizza, and even walk your dog. You won't miss anything. When jobs in Hollywood are sparse, I guess you take anything yo can get (Mariel and David did) and hope that at least the director can save the script (he didn't.) Absolutely stunk !

3/5 Action Movie where "Girl Gets Girl" in the end: Not lesbo hard corp saves VP
  by David Champion (Killeen, Texas)
This is your typical TV Movie. It is not top of the line. I still get laughs about the atomic hand grenades used in movies like these. Fact it guys about a 1/4 of TNT exploding in the open is not going to throw out a fireball and pick of 10 0r so men. They then get up and keep fighting.
Not a hardcore lez dyke thing. Not a sex thing either. Orientation yes...naked women having lunch.. NOT!!! So you horny guys looking for titties etc....NOT this movie. A kiss twice that is twice in this movie is it.
I enjoyed it. IT is available at so reasonable price. I may even buy one.
I still laugh at the atomic hand grenades and other silliness.

3/5 Entertaining Action

"In Her Line of Fire"

Entertaining Action

Amos Lassen and Cinema Pride

Can you imagine Rambo as a lesbian? Not an easy job to do but "In Her Line of Fire" tries hard. This could have been a really good film with a little better editing and a lot more polish. "Lesbianwise" there is something missing. There are a couple of kisses but not much more. "Actionwise" there is plenty--in fact, it is non-stop.
Mariel Hemingway plays the lead but age has not been kind to her--ten years ago she would have been great. She is tough and knows how to handle a gun. Her love interest, Jill Bennett is a brave woman and attractive to boot. The action which is continuous does not allow us to get to know the characters nor does it allow us to see any real romance between the two women. And the plot...the vice president of the U.S. is on a plane which is going down in a storm near an island where mercenaries and rebels have built their training camp. Hemingway is the official body guard of the veep and she is a tough cookie but we know that the Vice President travels with a bevy of secret service when he goes anywhere. As they struggle to get ashore, they are attacked by the militants on the island and the action begins. We never learn why the plane crashed but it obviously had to so we would have a movie.
Like Rambo, the heroine cannot be hurt and never misses a shot. But the main problem with the film is that the filmmaker had to decide whether or not to show a lesbian relationship and the focus of the film becomes lost because of this. Which is more important--the sexuality of the character or the story? Impact is lost and the film goes nowhere. So sexuality is shown but not a major issue of the movie but, on the other hand, the film gains mainstream acceptance (a sellout).
Since the film concentrates on plot, it is violent but that is all.
The members of the cast playing the militants are weak and this hurts the overall characterization. Visually, the movie seems to be made for TV. The key is to enjoy the action--there are guns blazing and chases, tough decisions and old-fashioned fighting action. There is a lot to entertain audiences and aside from the scene in the plane everything is adroitly done. What we end up with is a "B" movie with poor special effects.


2/5 disappointing
  by Kelly Fouts (kansas,USA)
The acting is fantastic by Muriel. The rest of the cast is poor and the plot is ok... The only thing is I kept comparing it to Personal Best
