The Recruit

Han vet inte vem han kan lita på. Den som den ena stunden är vän visar sig ofelbart vara fiende i nästa.

Slick and entertaining espionage thriller with Al Pacino and Colin Farrell.

Pacino's career alternates the good, serious stuff with the barnstorming hammery which is sometimes just as enjoyable...

...Pacino works his character for all its grizzled charm, and Colin Farrell is not only enormously likeable but fascinates us with his permanent four-day beard.

Nothing is what it seems. It's the subtext — two actors from different generations taking each other out with skill and affection — that counts. The CIA should be proud.
