Alex Thomas (Gooding, Jr.) was the man in charge of protecting the president, but when the time came to fulfill his duties everything just went wrong. His conscience haunted by a bullet and his devotion to his country stronger than ever, Alex teams with seasoned reporter Kate Crawford (Angie Harmon) in navigating a treacherous web of lies, unlocking a dangerous conspiracy, and enter into a deadly world in which skilled assassins and highly-trained ex-special ops lurk in every shadow. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Critic Reviews
-
Frank Scheck, Hollywood Reporter
An uncommonly good cast and some thrillingly staged action sequences distinguish this thriller, which otherwise has all the stamps of a direct-to-video item.

David Nusair, Reel Film Reviews
The relatively taut and suspenseful opening half hour, however, is eventually replaced by a far more conventional and unevenly-paced sort of vibe, with the end result a film that's sporadically intriguing but ultimately forgettable.
-
Staci Layne Wilson, Buzzine Magazine
If you enjoy conspiracy/action films like In the Line of Fire, and if you never miss an episode of 24 on TV, then chances are you'll be entertained by End Game.

Scott Weinberg, DVDTalk.com
It all plays out like a wanna-be episode of 24 or a screenplay that was deemed "just a little too good" for Seagal or Van Damme to anchor the thing.
