Amazon.co.uk Review
Essentially a cautionary tale of slightly futuristic cyber-terrorism, Netforce carries Tom Clancy's heavyweight name as the executive producer (but not writer). Don't expect a drama on the level of Patriot Games, however: Netforce is a blunt and somewhat rushed thriller with little time for character or relationship development. What it does offer is a scenario for the prospect of organised crime uniting with computer geeks and malevolent industrialists to sabotage national security through attacks on the Internet. Scott Bakula plays the FBI agent in charge of the Netforce division of the bureau; he takes charge after his mentor (Kris Kristofferson) is murdered and the investigation points to the involvement of a Web pioneer (Judge Reinhold). The hero's romance with a colleague (Joanna Going) grows a little trickier after he promotes her to the number two spot behind himself, but with the president's chief of staff (Brian Dennehy) breathing down their necks, that's the least of their professional problems. The action bounces around from good guys to sundry bad guys, but there's no question that a creeping paranoia about Net vulnerability and its disastrous implications grows on this production--and the viewers. --Tom Keogh, Amazon.com

This is a great movie. All the way through there is suspence, mystery and big guns! The film even opens with a scene involving stealth and firepower. A tremendous film, one that you can watch over and over noticing things you haven't seen before.

I bought this because Scott Bakula stars, and on that basis it is pretty good, lots of Scott being rugged and masculine. However, the story itself is over long, being broadcast originally as a mini-series, and I found my interest waning in the middle.

Tom clancy's books are brillant and the idea of his book being turned into a film was a plus for me, as I am not a keen reader. The film Netforce is brillant and I highly recommend you watch it. It's mainly about the internet, which is a big thing these days. These criminals have the power of the internet behind them to devastate the whole universe. Netforce is an FBI division who have to stop the plot for control. It's exciting and had me watching right to the end clued to my seat. I highly reecommend this film to you.
