The Peacemaker
The PeacemakerQuote: The Peacemaker is a 1997 American action/thriller film starring George Clooney and Nicole Kidman and directed by Mimi Leder. It is notable as being the first film released by DreamWorks. While the story takes place all over the world, it was shot primarily in Macedonia, with some sequences in New York and Philadelphia, and, to a greater extent, in Bratislava.

Fun movie with some good action and a more realistic story. Clooney excelled in a tough guy role.

I thought Clooney was pretty good in this, but it was a pretty average thriller. I rate it a B-.

Ah, back when Clooney still did the head tilt.
Ok action film. Too bad a woman directed it.

Decent, somewhat unrealistic actioner.

Clooney used to annoy me during this era. But I like this movie more now in hindsight, crisp action and Kidman rarely looked better.
B- but it's very watchable.

This was clooney's best time period I think
From Dusk Til Dawn, OUt of Sight, Peacemaker, We'll forget batman, and Three Kings. This one was a very fun flick, B+

Re: The Peacemaker
Clooney is really really angry in this film. Somebody feed the man some Prozac!!
Anyhoo its been awhile since I saw it but its entertaining enough action fodder as long as you ignore beleivability and the like, and Kidman looks great with the dark hair.

Re: The Peacemaker
This was Dreamworks first film apparently to get a release, the studio has come a long way.
