"An Enormously Satisfying Political Thriller." - Variety
From the director of the Fugitive comes a brilliant, explosively entertaining action/thriller featuring powerful performances by Oscar winners Gene Hackman (Unforgiven) and Tommy Lee Jones (Men in Black). Featuring a superb supporting cast that includes Dennis Franz (N.Y. P.D. Blue), Pam Grier (Jackie Brown) and John Heard (The Pelican Brief), this top-notch thriller (the Associated Press) really delivers!
Sergeant Johnny Gallagher (Hackman) thinks he's been given a routine assignment: to escort a rebellious American soldier (Jones) from Europe to the U.S. for a military court martial. Gallagher soon learns, however, that the assignment is anything but routine, when he uncovers a terrifying military conspiracy. The clock is ticking down to a historic superpower summit, and Gallagher must stop the deadly plot before it's too late...for him and his country.

At first glance, the "Package" might seem a little dated.
The movie however does not fail to deliver.
You get it?
Deliver? Package?
Oh..Never mind.
It's still one helluva movie.
Gene Hackman plays in one his best films ever and for a guy like him, that's one bold statement.
He plays Sergeant Johhny Gallagher who is a commander of an elite special forces unit assigned to protect the Premier in Germany. The mission goes wrong and he is assigned to slo
