SnoReptilePlenty Memorable, crazy movie

Moustroll Good movie but grossly overrated

Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

Candida It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

JohnHowardReid Make that that 9.5! I loved this movie! My only complaints are that two or three scenes tended to out-stay their welcome and went on just a bit too long and that the sound recording in one or two places was a little low. It shouldn't be necessary to adjust the sound controls once you set them when the movie starts. But these are mere quibbles. There are so many good things about this delightfully expensive and expansive movie that I prefer to concentrate on aspects like the marvelous performance Goldie Hawn delivers, and indeed the astute playing of the whole cast. The script provides a tremendous line-up of socko characters and intriguing situations which are splendidly directed by Herbert Ross of all people. Frankly, I thought that a movie with such a huge cast and so many powerful scenes would be a bit beyond Herbert's capabilities, but he has risen to the challenge magnificently. Even the extras play their two or three seconds roles with remarkable charisma, and yet they don't steal anything from Miss Hawn. True, Buck Henry and others have provided a great script with plenty of laughs and a huge line-up of characters -- plus a few critical ploys and stings that put our politicians in a far less favorable light than the usual cow- towing Hollywood movie. I also thought the music score surely deserved recognition as one of the best of the year. In fact, all the credits were magnificent in this "comedy" that delivers plenty of stings. I'm not surprised that many people don't like it. Why not? Because they realize that they themselves are one of the script's main targets.

moviesfan11 PROTOCOL(1984) Goldie Hawn, Chris Sarandon, and Richard Romanus. In this film, Hawn plays Sunny Davis, a ditzy cocktail waitress who becomes famous around america after she saves a man from an assassination attempt. She gets offered a job working at Washington D.C.This was an above average comedy, but not as good as some of Goldies' other films.(such as Overboard, Housesitter, and Seems like Old Times)But i did laugh a lot. So if you enjoy a cute comedy, I would recommend this movie.PROTOCOL: 6.4/10PG; some sexual humor, brief language, and mild violence.

artroraback Protocol is an implausible movie whose only saving grace is that it stars Goldie Hawn along with a good cast of supporting actors. The story revolves around a ditzy cocktail waitress who becomes famous after inadvertently saving the life of an Arab dignitary. The story goes downhill halfway through the movie and Goldie's charm just doesn't save this movie. Unless you are a Goldie Hawn fan don't go out of your way to see this film.

jhaggardjr "Protocol" is a hit-and-miss picture starring Goldie Hawn as a bubbly cocktail waitress who one night saves the life of a visiting Arab from an assassination attempt. The woman immediately becomes a celebrity, and gets a new job working for the U.S. Government. Will the corridors of power in our nation's capital ever be the same? Hawn is excellent as usual even though "Protocol" isn't as funny as her best film "Private Benjamin". But it's still a good movie, and I did laugh alot.*** (out of four)
