This is one of those classic films of my childhood, but at the same time I didn't consider it among my favorites. I just rewatched it recently and it does totally hold up as a slick action thriller, the type of government spying on you has become kind of a given with the technology nowadays, but back then we were just at the forefront of it I think. Smith is great in this, rightly one of the biggest stars at the time and the film is in good hands with Scott too. I don't love the last act as much, there's something about Hackman that didn't feel right to me.

This is indeed very good. I have watched it three times over the years. Scott is at the top of his game here, and Smith and Hackman are very good. I really enjoy the fact that Smith never kills anyone in the film, he just outwits everyone.

8/0.
