Strong Bond-esque Show Led By All Star Cast, 26 April 2001
8/10
Author: Joshua Jon Johnson from Moorhead, Minnesota

Lassiter stars Tom Selleck and Bond-girl Jane Seymour. Lassiter, like Bond gets into similar situations and in the end triumphs over the enemy. Lassiter has action, beautiful stars, acting, and enough plot to keep it going. It's not perfect, nor a hidden gem, but it should not be forgotten either. It's worth an evening and a bag of popcorn.
