A good movie

I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this movie but since it looked promising, I thought I might as well check it out. First of all, Don Cheadle and Guy Pearce must be two of the most underrated actors at work nowadays and it was a real treat to see them together. To be honest, I must say that, even though Guy Pearce was as usual pretty good in this movie, I thought the guy was actually rather underused. On the other hand, it was pretty neat that Don Cheadle was playing the lead for once and he delivered once again a really strong performance. Concerning the story, I thought it was entertaining enough but, to be honest, it was nothing really mind-blowing. I mean, they went for a gritty approach but even so, it remained a rather far-fetched thriller with a rather convoluted story. On top of that, seriously, I’m pretty sure I will forget the whole thing in a couple of days. Concerning Jeffrey Nachmanoff, even though it was a decent directing effort, the guy wouldn’t direct another movie during the next 10 years. Anyway, to conclude, it was a rather well made terrorism related thriller and, thanks above all to the good actors involved, it is an enjoyable flick and it is definitely worth a look.
