lineup of this film is very strong. The director is South African Gavin Hood, who directed the Oscar's best foreign language film "The Gangster Thug". Leading roles include Oscar actress, "The Beauty in Law" Reese Witherspoon (pregnant woman of Qianli Xunfu); Jack Gyllenhaal from "Brokeback Mountain" (CIA agent discovered by conscience); twice Merrill Streep (cold-blooded executive of the CIA), who won the Oscar and won 14 Oscar nominations; Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, Alan Arkin (Senator) from "Little Beauty in the Sun" ; Oscar-nominated Peter Susgade (assistant to the senator, the heroine’s ex-boyfriend); and JK Simmons, Bob Gordon, etc. These are only American actors, and there are several Egyptian actors who performed very well: Omar Metwally (the wronged actor), Mohammed Khouas (the suicide bomber handsome boy), Zineb Oukach (the handsome boy’s girlfriend, who looks a lot like Karen Mok ), Yigal Naor (the head of the Egyptian intelligence agency, the father of the handsome boy's girlfriend). With such a big lineup, the acting is naturally very good. But it's still the old playmaker Meryl Streep the most intriguing three-pointer.
With so many characters, it can be seen how huge the story line of this film is. Today, with the proliferation of anti-terrorism movies, this movie captures one point, that is, after 9/11, the US intelligence agencies have been all around, arresting innocent people indiscriminately, and abused lynching, leading to many unjust, false and wrongful cases. This is a very good point. Gavin Hood is very good at interpreting contradictions in a very real way, which makes people sigh. From the exposure of the CIA's shady sublimation to the thinking about how terrorism arises, ethnic and religious conflicts (anyway, it touched me to sigh and think). The plot of the film is also very good. Although I guessed the true identity of each character, the setting of the film's time clues is so ingenious that I was completely unaware of it. The action scenes are also good, but they are not the subject.
