Synopsis:
The Package, a thriller involving political assassination and intrigue,
is an excellent action feature using a familiar theme and providing good
performances by the cast. Boyette (Tommy Lee Jones) is a prisoner
entrusted to Gallagher (Gene Hackman) for transportation back to the
United States. Boyette escapes and Gallagher must find him. In doing
so, Gallagher finds himself getting into far more than he had bargained
for as he becomes involved in a political assignation plot that he must
stop. Both Hackman and Jones are excellent in reprising familiar roles.
Hackman is never better than when portraying the decent man in a
precarious position, and Jones plays Boyette with the same cunning
and intelligence that he brought to The Executioner's Song.
