The Presidio (1988)

Mark Harmon is a San Francisco detective. Sean Connery is a Lieutenant Colonel who used to be his commanding officer. After a shooting at the Presidio that also results in the death of two city cops, the two are forced to work together to find the killers despite their troubled history. It’s an entertaining but entirely forgettable crime drama. By the time the mystery behind the reason for the killings is revealed, I’d forgotten there was even a mystery to be solved. While I generally like Mark Harmon, he’s out of his depths in this film next to Connery and Jack Warden. A love story between Harmon and Meg Ryan is completely unnecessary and her entire role in the film feels rammed in.
