A great film about the shitty politics that goes on in this world
Great start to the movie and it continued being action packed and suspenseful. Really liked it.
Review will be written when/if re-watched (Probability: Zero).
First viewing: 18.06.1999
Another solid feature from my idol. great cast including Aussie Judy Davis.
I was working in a movie theater when this came out and the employees got a free screening of this one night. I'm so glad I didn't pay for it. It's that boring.
'Absolute Power' is the kind of thriller that attempts to explore character relationships yet still provide enough thrills to satisfy an adrenaline-hungry audience; one that includes a potentially smart storyline and interesting characters that work around the plot, rather than a...( read more)
Eastwood is pretty awesome. Hackman and Harris are great as well. Kind of a "What If" movie.
not a bad film at all and quite believable good performances from both hackman and eastwood
A bit of a hit and miss type film. A pretty slow start, but the general story was fairly good, yet it all seemed a little dragged out.
Eastwood plays Luther Witney, an art thief who witnesses the U.S. President murder a woman in his own bedroom.

im a big Clint Eastwood fan...i like most of his work...this one was a bit slow..but still a good movie
Very good movie. Intriguing and full of suspense. I have seen this movie twice but didn't remember much of it to be honest. This time around I found it very good, enjoyed it alot and couldn't wait to see what happened in the end. Thoroughly recommend this movie.
Both cast and Directos (self Clint) deserves a "very good". I like the role Clint acted, was not the a hero but not "super heroe" and also liked the argument (very good for my movie tastes). Liked also the final, this is importan to me...
I remember seeing this once. I'm not a big fan of eastwood since he seems to have the same expression 24/7 but the movie was very average. His acting didnt sway anything.
Just Amazing Everybody in this movie really did a great job. Clint Eastwood, Gene Hackman, Laura Linney. Great proformances
This is typical of later Eastwood: solid, interesting but not at all spectacular. Hackman's penchant for playing bad authority men reaches its climax in this Eastwood potboiler: he actually plays the president. It's a by the numbers thriller, to be sure; but, of course, it has ...( read more)
Enjoyable thriller about political corruption - wouldn't want to watch it over and over.
a great mysterious movies.. about seraching for love and justice, and about finding your loved onees back into it's place again where they belong to be...Clint Eastwood or Luther made such a wonderful impression to his role as a painter/thief
