THE RECRUIT


[Courtesy: imdb.com;Click snap for a blow up]

"NOTHING IS WHAT IT SEEMS" is the slogan for the movie THE RECRUIT. One more is “EVERYTHING IS A TEST”. It is a movie about a college guy selected and trained in the camp of CIA. The movie has thrilling plots which make the audience to be on their toes.

Personally, I was really charged after watching the movie. I couldn’t turn aside from the screen till the end. Each sequence was interesting and nail biting. Once again Al Pacino as Walter Burke occupies the movie completely. I am becoming a big time fan to this guy. The body language speaks for the character and the way he does as if its happening but "NOTHING IS WHAT IT SEEMS".

The hero Colin Farrell as James Douglas Clayton is enthusiastic and good to watch. Few places he would have done extremely well and some techie stuff surprises you. In a scene, the hero tries to hack the password of a system. I was blinking what is he going to do, but he started writing code in programming language in a high speed within a box where you can enter the password. Wow! Might be its not reality, but thought for a moment what am I doing ?!?!

The chasing sequences and the fast paced action of the hero add value to the movie. All other cast has done well and performs to what is needed. It was really a movie not to be missed. I like it the way...BTW am I writing about the movie? Nope! "NOTHING IS WHAT IT SEEMS"
