      Clint Eastwood plays an aging (old) CIA agent who was escorting Kennedy when he
    was shot and who is now being singled out as a kind of opponent by Malkovich to
    try and prevent him killing the present president which makes for quite a gripping
    film. I have the feeling this wouldn't have been so though if it wasn't our friend
    Malkatraz playing the baddie. He plays an excellent psycho as can be seen in Con Air
    when he is Cyrus the Virus and in this film he excels as the mild mannered, soft
    spoken complete and utter cyclepath. There is no doubt that it wouldn't have been
    half as good without Malkovich and I would even go as far as saying he carries the
    film and he carried it all the way to the lofty hights of a BBM approval rating of 7/10.
