Customer Reviews

"Our dreams are our children."

The story covers several years and three presidencies. First Lemmon, then Garner, and now Aykroyd. Vice President Ted Matthews (John Heard) is a dunce. Turns out rumors of a scandal are surfacing, and the now-president is having thoughts of pinning the scandal on Lemmon, who was president at the time. Joe Hollis (Wilford Brimley), the head of the opposition party, wants to pin it on the present administration. Col. Paul Tanner will protect the secret at any cost. There are many more players, too numerous to mention. Seems that someone has determined that Lemmon and Garner are best dispatched. Will this happen? Can they clear their names? And not just who is behind the plot, but what is the plot? Watch out for Blinky. This movie has a sound mystery base to get us through the twists and turns with lots of "who's behind it" moments. However, the interaction between Garner and Lemmon is so much fun that sometimes we forget the plot.
