A un guardaespaldas del presidente se le asigna proteger a la inquieta primera dama, mientras sufre varios atentados.
Jay Killion, el guardaespaldas del recientemente elegido presidente de los Estados Unidos, debe proteger también la vida de la primera dama, una mujer problemática que es objeto de varios intentos de asesinato. La última película estrenada en cines del director Peter R. Hunt fue esta cinta de acción con toques de comedia, protagonizada por Charles Bronson. El actor, quien ya había coincidido con el realizador en "Caza salvaje", volvió a encontrarse en la pantalla, por 16ª vez, con su esposa, Jill Ireland, en la que se convertiría en su última aparición conjunta. Y es que la actriz, que ya padecía cáncer de mama en el momento del rodaje, no superaría la enfermedad y moriría tres años más tarde. Les acompaña en un pequeño papel Chris Alcaide ("El sheriff de Oracle"), un actor de wésterns ya retirado que volvió al séptimo arte solo para participar en la que nos ocupa.

The people that put this film together really had no clue on how the Secret Service operates. Whether this was done on purpose to mislead anyone with less than honorable notions or out of Hollywood Ignorance, it really doesn't matter. The thought that a Protectee would be allowed to override Secret Service Policy is absurd and their continued blatant interference with the protective doctrine would not only be terminated at the first episode, but would also result in the Protectee being only kept in secure locations without venturing out into the public eye. The Protectee would not be allowed to be used as bait to trap a suspect, nor would they be allowed to trek across the country vagabond-style in hopes of outrunning their tail. The action scenes were laughable and the shooting was atrocious. If ANY agent or terrorist were to miss their target with as many shots as these characters did, they would have been fired or retired well before they reached their current status. Definitely NOT one of Bronson's best.
Boy oh boy, are we sure Bronson didn't direct this one himself...? Seriously, he is basically untouchable and irresistible. I can buy that in most action movies, as there's suspension of disbelief and all that, but it's harder to swallow with an actor that's in his twilight and one that is in the position his character is in this movie. Regardless, it's fun enough if you're looking to get your Bronson fix.
