REVIEW – Acting as a key foreign policy adviser in her husband’s administration, the First Lady (Hillary Clinton) travels to war-torn Bosnia with her daughter (Chelsea Clinton) and butch-dyke assistant (Rosie O’Donnell) where they must endure a harrowing corkscrew style landing to avoid surface-to-air threats only to face sniper fire once on the ground.
With snipers in the hills, the wife of the President (Bill Clinton), is forced to cut short a greeting ceremony on the tarmac but still makes time to listen to an 8-year old girl’s poem and shake hands with troops before she and her entourage dash off with heads down to an awaiting limousine.
Don’t miss the non-stop action in this digitally re-mastered 1996 comedy-thriller by Joel Schumacher. Packed with action and laughs, the First Lady must endure hours of rhetoric from foreign dignitaries (Jack Nicholson, Robert Kennedy, Jr., Barbra Streisand) and dodge vicious killers bent on silencing her all while her whacky bodyguard (played by comedian Sinbad) tries to keep the situation light with non-stop jokes (in stark contrast to his real-life stand-up act).
Howard Wolfson makes a cameo appearance as Hillary's Press Secratary who remains stateside to recount for the Press her wild and whacky adventures abroad.
