Customer Reviews of Diplomatic Siege
Beyond A Joke Dreadful wannabe action movie attempts every cliché hurdle and falls every time. Only partially relieved by several unintentionally hilarious set pieces... the toilet elevator kidnap, the (completely unerotic) sex scene featuring Peter Weller's socks, the wet-towel-on-head ploy and the HUGE amount of noise made by our heroes as they attempt to sneak through the air ducts. Oh I forgot the laser beam/pocket mirror scene!
Oh, and the Pentagon Chiefs of Staff/NSA - the least believable casting ever. Check out the guy with the suit three sizes too big ...
Poor Tom Berenger. They can't have shown him the complete script.
For real Foriegn Service Officers only....
For those who have a abiding reason to support the Rumanian government (who seems to have written it - Nearly every actor, down to the US Ambassador, is a Rumanian, and the credits list pages of Government offices who supported it), buy it. For all others, rent it once, and then only if you happen to have been stationed overseas at an Embassy. Besides the abysmal writing, the high-school level acting, and the plot with holes so big you could drive a movie through it, the movie has few redeeming qualities other than the vision of an Embassy that was really run like that.
You have been warned ;^P
Nowhere near reality
The movie is awful, the dialog abuse against the cast, but...
...if you happen to be assigned to the (real - not the movie) US Embassy in Bucharest, and happen to be the real technical security officer (computers, alarms, and such), and just happen to have offices in the basement (where the mythical nuclear bomb is) - well, the movie is simply a scream! Boy, if only Daryl Hannah would come down to the basement and visit me some time...
I tell you, reality can never match Hollywood (either for shear moron stupidity or pure exaggeration). Not recommended unless you've been posted here, and really need to get a laugh about the old place!
