SunnyHello Nice effects though.

Breakinger A Brilliant Conflict

CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

InformationRap This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

gridoon2018 Not as jingoistic as expected, for one thing. "The radical fundamentalist element makes up only about 0.01% of the billion Muslims spread around the world. We can't condemn them all for the actions of a few", says Chuck Norris (top government agent, college professor at his spare time!) at one point, and if it sounds preachy or heavy-handed, considering the fact that some people still haven't gotten that point in the year 2008, it's quite commendable of Norris to make it in 2001. As an action film, "The President's Man 2" is above-average by TV standards. Some of the stunts are blatantly unbelievable (catching a knife thrown at you in mid-air!), but what the hell, it's an action film after all. Chuck mostly sits this one out, giving the spotlight to the young Judson Mills, who is admittedly very impressive in his fight scenes. The best scene of the movie is a friendly training "match" between Mills and Chuck's on-screen daughter, Jennifer Tung (who is either trained in the martial arts or can fake it very well). Actually, that's the second best scene. The best is Chuck kicking a terrorist onto a tree like a ball! (**1/2) (By the way, contrary to what another comment says, Mills isn't Norris' son, Tung never goes into the field, and there is no bad girl either; seeing a movie before commenting on it is strongly recommended).

charliepisces OK, so, Chuck Norris somehow found a way to get this sequel produced. I have one question-why? Who read this script and said, "Sound's great! Original!" This movie is regurgitated crap that I wouldn't tarnish my toilet bowel with. Of course it is another story, following in the tradition of MIA, Invasion USA, Walker, Texas Ranger, Delta Force and so on in which Chuck Norris, of course, is the one man who can same America from some bad guys. He doesn't even need a gun most times. It's stupid patriotic jargon that stales the mind. Big surprise that the only one who will direct these Norris film's is Chuck's son Eric. Eric Norris has primarily worked on all his father's films and TV shows. Doesn't this strike anyone as a sign that he has no directing talent? Afterall, he's directing the same people as before in the same stories as before...only difference is the characters' names. If this is supposed to make me patriotic and cheer for the USA, than our country is in much worse shape than I ever imagined. Hopefully, this will be the nail in Chuck Norris's acting coffin.

rklamot Ooverall, the movie was fairly good, a good action plot with a fair amount of explosions and fight scenes, but Chuck Norris did hardly anything, except for disarm the bomb and shoot a few characters. The movie was very similar to the events of Sept. 11, with a bin laden-like terrorist sending a video to the president (Urich) and threatening to detonate it. Judson Mills had some superb action roles, taking out Rashid's compound and various kick-butt roles but, there was a lack of Chuck Norris. Judson took over most of the action, leaving Joshua (chuck) with Que on her computer. But, overall, it was realistic and didn't lack the action, but only did it on Mr. Norris' part. I gave the film 7/10.

DrEbert ***SPOILERS*** ***SPOILERS*** Most of the time, I prefer a movie that is realistic. Every now and then, particularly when I sit down to watch an action movie, I let some realism be sacrificed for entertainment's sake. However, the keyword here is SOME realism.THE PRESIDENT'S MAN: A LINE IN THE SAND, sequel to THE PRESIDENT'S MAN (which I have not seen), sacrifices ALL realism. So much realism is sacrificed, in fact, that about ten minutes (no exaggeration) into the movie, I stopped thinking about the plot, or lack thereof, and just kept on thinking how impossible the storyline was. To give you an idea of how unrealistic this film is, read the following: (NOTE: I'm listing these assuming that the film never airs again or never comes out on video. This list might contain spoilers.)~In the opening scene, Deke manages to outrun an entire band of machine-gun-armed rebels who have the worst aim I have ever seen.~The terrorists manage to sneak enough plutonium into the United States to build a bomb big enough to destroy an entire city through two small (as in desktop size) statues.~The bomb, which, in order to destroy an entire city, would have to be at least 1 megaton, is about as big as a toaster oven.~Navy F-16s drop "smart" bombs on the terrorists' headquarters that miss.~The terrorists shoot down an F-16 using surface-to-air missiles (where did they get those?).~Deke manages to parachute down into the terrorists' headquarters and kidnap their leader SINGLE-HANDEDLY. He is unharmed.~The President manages to keep Chuck Norris and Co. secret and nobody really even cares how the President can do that which elite Marines can't.~Chuck Norris actually figures out the terrorists' code language to the letter.~Chuck Norris and Co. can use satellites to see what happened at any spot on the earth at anytime day or night.~Chuck Norris and Co. have access to any and all top secret equipment they want or need.~Chuck Norris and Deke alone manage to stop the terrorists' plot.~Chuck Norris and Co. can call the FBI or any other government agency like they are their own personal watchdogs.~Chuck Norris is not only strong and fast, but smart enough to know which wire to cut when diffusing a nuclear bomb. I hope you get the idea. If you don't, find somebody who taped this movie and tally how many unrealistic things you see. If you get a number less than 1,000, count again.As for all you filmmakers out there, words to live by: Reality can be sacrificed to an extent. But the keywords here are "to an extent."
