On the outside, I try to project an image of having it all together. But underneath that, I'm kind of a disaster. Hence... the name of the site: GlossyVeneer. Synopsis:
When straight arrow FBI agent Roy Clayton heads up the investigation into a dangerous international conspiracy, all clues seem to lead back to former U.S. Special Operations officer, Samir Horn.

Terrorism is theater. And theater is always performed for an audience.
Rating: PG-13 for intense violent sequences, thematic material and brief language
Traitor
Heavy material presented really well by a stellar cast. The acting was great and the story was intriguing.
Alas, this was a very different movie than what I thought it was going into it. And that problem is purely due to the poor marketing engine that powers Hollywood. The marketing showed the explosions and actions, but most of the film was thoughtful and a little slow at times.
Don Cheadle carried it, he truly is a remarkable performer. The movie is heavy and kind of dreary in some ways, simply because of the depiction of terrorism and how it was almost like an in-depth look at the crummy news of the world. A solid film, Cheadle rocks.
My rating: stars
