An attempt to do a “Syriana” story in a “Network” tone — not 100% successful, but certainly fascinating, if only for the scenes of Arab terrorists plotting to destroy the World Trade Center. Sean Connery doesn’t really know from funny, but the supporting cast (Dean Stockwell, Robert Conrad, Rosalind Cash and Leslie Neilson) do. I really recommned this movie for political junkies – very fascinating to see the 80s perception of what, unfortunately, wasn’t too far off a prediction of the future.
