The first work directed by traffic's screenwriter does not follow the signature multi-tone image style of Traffic, but it is also multi-threaded with many characters. This film uses a wide-angle scene to bring out a construction site in Tajikistan shrouded in morning fog. The poor foreign workers crowded the shuttle bus urgently, because getting on the shuttle bus meant that today's life was settled. This extraordinary viewpoint finally evolved into the situation of suicide attackers; the movie finally ended in the white light of a suicide bombing, and the puppet crown prince supported by the CIA and the American oil tycoon toasted. The agent played by Knuone became artillery.
The most important thing is that the film shows multiple perspectives. There are agents who are called terrorist suicides, who are based on personal conscience, and there is money insider. This is an advancement that other American films do not have.
