Title: Skip it
Review: The Package was quite a disappointment considering the presence of Gene Hackman and Tommy Lee Jones among others.A U.S. sergeant witnesses the assassination of a high ranking American military officer during peace talks held in Germany between Washington and Moscow. Shortly after the incident he receives orders to return home accompanying a prisoner. Things quickly become more complicated when `the package' makes a run for it...In short, the acting is all right (though nothing great), while the plot and the dialogues are average and below average respectively.The movie does bring to mind The Fugitive, though this film does not really provide as much entertainment.Though the potential for a good movie was definitely there it fails to take off, primarily due to the writers and the poor choice of lines and weak plot.In a nutshell, it's a mediocre movie and that's about it; no masterpiece here... 2.2 Stars
