Academy Award(R)-Winner Al Pacino (Best Actor, SCENT OF A WOMAN, 1991) and Colin Farrell (MINORITY REPORT) take you deeper into the CIA than you've ever been before in this action-packed psychological thriller. James Clayton (Farrell), one of the smartest graduates in the country, is just the person Walter Burke (Pacino) wants in the Agency. James quickly rises through the ranks and falls for Layla (Bridget Moynahan, THE SUM OF ALL FEARS), one of his fellow recruits. But just when James starts to question his role and his cat-and-mouse relationship with his mentor, Burke taps him to root out a mole. As the suspense builds in a maze of gripping twists and turns, there are only two things James can count on -- he can't trust anyone and nothing is as it seems. It's the ultimate CIA thriller with so many surprise plot twists, you'll want to watch it again and again.

Summary: 2.5 stars out of 4
Comment: The Bottom Line:
The Recruit is an acceptable way to kill two hours--although almost every minute of the movie feels like it has been done before, the first half is legitimately engaging and it's never offensively bad.

Summary: Good movie
Comment: This movie got mixed reviews from wonderful to horrible. I watched this movie on TV tonight and loved every minute of it. No there weren't car chases and gun battles and lots of tasteless sex,instead it seemed more real than fiction. Most of what happened on the movie could actually happen in real life and that's what made it interesting to me. It held my attention for the duration and now I plan to purchase it as I need to watch it again to catch parts I didn't understand. I'm no Pacino expert which is what most of the 1 star givers seem to be and I don't watch a ton of movies - perhaps that's why I enjoyed it - because I haven't seen every scenario created for movies out there. This movie is exciting and kept me on the edge of my seat and left me wanting more.

Customer Rating:
Summary: Great plot twists
Comment: Not many movies hold my attention for the full run time, while I did eventually guess the ending it was a well constructed plot.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Doesn't Make Sense
Comment: If Al Pacino's character already has Bridget Moynahan stealing the program for him why does he have to have Colin Farrell steal it from her. It doesn't make sense unless they left out a scene where that would suggest that Colin Farrell would have to piece it all back together before it could be used by Al Pacino.
