Starring - Collin Farrel, Al Pacino, some woman
Rating - 3.023352
Synopsis - A man (Collin Farrel) is recruited by another man (Al Pacino) to be a CIA person who spies on a mole (some woman) who he inevitably falls for while driving a red truck (Chevy).

Review - I'm glad that Collin has finally found work after all of these years since Full House. He has left behind his squeaky clean image after this role and the various arrests for drug use and prostitution of a squeegee. Al Pacino, who I call Alpo, brings his immense skill as a female impersonator for his revealing scene with a woman (a woman). The thought of it still sends chills up my spine. My only complaint with this movie that moves along at a pace that would make an inanimate object win the Boston marathon is the fact that the CIA was never really explained. What exactly does this CIA stand for? Congratulations, Inniago Montoya? Come on. Plus, how believable is it that people would be able to steal computer programs? (On a side note, the CIA had a completely secure system without disk drives or printers so people couldn't take information. However, the keyboards did have USB connections which is how the important information was stolen.) 

 

On my scale of 1 - 10, I'll give this movie a 3.0233
