| | This is good look at Keifer in a Jack Bauer role | skylark 07/16/2010 | | It's hard to see the Sledgehammer tv show character as President of the U.S.A. But because his role is very small (even tho there is a plot to kill him), it doesn't detract from the Douglas and Sutherland chemistry that keep the movie going. I bet this role landed Sutherland the Jack Bauer role - don't you love "connections." |
