Now here's an excellent movie!
Based on a real-life event - remember the Ambassador and his CIA-agent wife, who was named in a newspaper article? this is a movie about them - indeed, Sean Penn and Naomi Watts are at their best, portraying the afore-mentioned couple.
Very efficient spy thriller. Worth watching. Doug Liman's best directing job so far.

A good movie

Since I am a fan of Naomi Watts and even more of Sean Penn, I definitely had to watch this flick. Apparently, it was a flop but I thought it was actually pretty good. Indeed, it is a rather realistic thriller-drama which deals with spions and politics and I thought the whole thing was pretty fascinating. At first, it reminded me of 'Green Zone' another movie dealing with the fact that the USA went... read more

Plame's status as a CIA agent was revealed by White House officials allegedly out to discredit her husband after he wrote a 2003 New York Times op-ed piece saying that the Bush administration had manipulated intelligence about weapons of mass destruction to justify the invasion of Iraq.

A good movie

“Since I am a fan of Naomi Watts and even more of Sean Penn, I definitely had to watch this flick. Apparently, it was a flop but I thought it was actually pretty good. Indeed, it is a rather realistic thriller-drama which deals with spions and politics and I thought the whole thing was pretty fascinating. At first, it reminded me of 'Green Zone' another movie dealing with the fact that the USA went to war for some phony reasons. However, this flick went further than this and it developped some interesting themes such as patriotism, loyalty (to your country but also to your husband/wife) and truth. I almost gave it a higher rating but the whole thing was still not really satisfactory partly because it was too short (about 95 minutes) to really develop such interesting ideas but above all bec” read more

"First I was not sure about this movie at all. I wasn't sure about the path of the plot it could take. But it evolved perfectly. I like the combination of Sean Penn and Naomi Watts anyway. "

"Katsottu 1.1.2012., tv Onnistunut draamatrilleri Irakin sotaan liittyvästä ydinaseaspektin peittelystä ja sen paljastamiseen pyrkimisestä. Elokuvan vahvinta antia ovat Naomi Wattsin ja Sean Pennin erittäin onnistuneet roolisuoritukset: he tuovat hahmojensa tuskan ja päättäväisyyden upeasti esille. Itse käsikirjoitus on vähän kaksipiippuinen tapaus: siinä olevat asiat ovat todella tärkeitä ja niitä käsitellään hyvin, mutta asiat etenevät epäselvästi - etenkin jos ei tiedä "
