   Is the jackal based on a true story?

   • "The Jackal'' is based on the screenplay of Fred Zinnemann's 1973 classic "The Day of the Jackal.'' That was a film that impressed us with the depth of its expertise: We felt it knew exactly what it was talking about. "The Jackal,'' on the other hand, impressed me with its absurdity. There was scarcely a second I could take seriously.

   Poitier is always a class act, and Willis and Gere have terrific anti-chemistry. There's nothing wrong with the cinematography or directing, and the pace of the film, though a little breathless, is fine. Regardless, the story-line never reached much beyond the ordinary thriller fare.

   The movie's best scene finds the Jackal, poker-faced with a hint of merriment in his ice-blue eyes, testing this fabulous toy in a Canadian field with the sleazy firearms dealer (Jack Black), who provided the parts standing by.
