Fears
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 7
All the performances are
exemplary with a few actors
doing above and beyond what is
expected of them. Phillip Baker
Hall, Alan Bates, and Bruce
McGill are all excellent as
President Fowler’s advisors,
conveying a real intensity as they
debate on whether or not to start
a nuclear war. Perhaps most
impressive, though, is Liev
Schreiber as special operations
officer John Clark. In just few
minutes of screen time, he
manages to make his character
more interesting than any other
in the film.
“The Sum of All Fears” has its
drawbacks, though. There are
times when the movie doesn’t try
very hard to be realistic; Ryan
manages to be in all the right
places at all the right times.
Ryan’s girlfriend, while well
played by Bridget Moynahan,
seems to serve no real purpose
other than to give the audience a
few warm fuzzies.
Despite the flaws, “The Sum of
All Fears” manages to be a smart
thriller while still being an
escapist "blow-stuff-up” movie.
Perhaps the best part is that the
film tells a story about a terrorist
attack on the US without any
unnecessary flag-waving or
overly sentimental patriotism.
