Surprisingly incoherent and boring

Just perfect...

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

Nice little suspense film from HBO. Does a good job of building up to the climax, but then falters. I felt the ending was very "convenient," and not believable. I did not see the original, so I'm not sure if it had the same ending. As the film progresses, we get to see Forest Whitaker do some mini-marathons throughout the city. This film reminded me of a cross between "No Way Out" and "The Shadow Conspiracy." No Way Out was also a military conspiracy film and had George Dzundza in a supporting role. "The Shadow Conspiracy," an awful film starring Charlie Sheen, was also about a government conspiracy revolving around a plot to assassinate the President from within the Government. Coincidentally, Sam Waterston plays the President in that too.

The reason the original "Seven Days in May" was so compelling was that it came against the backdrop of very real events.It was the middle of the Cold War. The very name of President Jordan Lyman (Played by Frederic March) turned out to be very similar -- almost an anagram -- of the real-life President Lyndon Johnson, whose campaign to win a full four-year term in 1964 was anchored, in part, on a promise to seek an agreement with the Soviet Union on a reduction in nuclear arms.And it was taken far more seriously than the two other Cold War thrillers of 1964, "Dr. Strangelove" and "Fail-Safe." "The Enemy Within" fails from the start because it was made after the Cold War ended and unfortunately, the storyline wasn't updated accordingly. A far more successful remake would have been one that was made post-September 11 with the War on Terror as the backdrop.

Really? Take a look at the measures Bush has taken in the last few years to expand the powers of the presidency with no checks by the legislative or judicial branches, spying on American citizens, etc. and tell me this can't happen here. Exactly who was deceiving Secretary Powell about Sadam and his nuclear readiness - Santa Claus? If you think vast conspiracy for personal gain and/or power cannot happen here, get you head out of the sand.Forest Whitaker did a great job and was completely believable is this role - dedicated to his country and in disbelief that his hero could possibly be involved in such a conspiracy.This movie is more relevant now, perhaps, than in 1994. I think it deserves another run on TV.

Bad acting, bad dialogs, bad dialog rendering. Man! It felt like everyone was moving in a daze while acting. Even dialogs whichare supposed to be delivered with a PUNCH are just....read out! And ofcourse, the story line was totally disconnected.Stay away from this unless you want to laugh at stupid movies with your friends - actually you probably wont be able to do that either!
