Subperb movie. Straight foward and powerful. Timothy Hutton is right on as the President's Chief of Staff. Kevin Pollack gives his best performance... o date as the President. One of the best political thriller's I have ever seen. The Contender had all star cast and story but not near as gritty as Deterrence-BRAVO! Full Review

The kind of movie that leaves you with fundamental objections. But that's after it's over. While it's playing, it's surprisingly good.Full Review

Chicago Sun-Times

There is a palpable edge-of-the-seat tension and a number of complex ethnic issues that linger after the movie ends.Full Review
