Jackal, The [17] -1997-

Lets see. We change (French President) Charles de Gaulle for the FBI Director. The British Agent for a convicted Irish Terrorist. Move the whole scene to the USA and we have the new Jackal Movie. (Thats how easy it is for Hollywood to come up with new scripts.)

Now that's not saying that Bruce Willis (as the Jackal) and Richard Gere (as the IRA commando) can't pull it off, but I'm hedging my bets here. You'll see top notch action. Over the top special effects and Bruce being the Evil Bruce. I can guarantee that Richard will be acting without the hamster, but for the plot - all bets are off. IRA commandos are a hot commodity right now (Brad Pitt in Devil's Own, which tanked.) So they could be the next Hollywood plot device for awhile. Grab some buddies and see it at the matinee. {AB}
