Han Solo goes to Mexicoland to duff up drugs. Willem Dafoe tries to be grizzled but doesn’t quite pull it off. Everything’s very murky and politicians are right old bastards. Further proof that Harrison Ford looks really weird when he runs.
Trivia

The ‘Oval Office’ where several scenes with the President take place was actually built in 1909 and is where the President lives.
In a shot in the ambush sequence, Jack’s ‘Frankie says’ t-shirt is a tribute to Frankie Goes to Hollywood, director Phillip Noyce’s favourite pop group
The six-minute scene of Harrison Ford preparing mince and discussing mince recipes was put in at the insistence of Harrison Ford who is a huge mince fan.
