    “The Recruit” Movie Review

    “The Recruit” Plot Summary

    A brilliant young CIA trainee is asked by his mentor to help find a mole in the Agency.

    Good film, good cast

    Colin Farrell, Al Pacino and Bridget Moynihan star in ‘The Recruit,’ a 2003 film directed by Roger Donaldson. Farrell plays a young man recruited by the CIA in the person of Pacino; while training at Langley, he gets close to another trainee (Moynihan). Once out of training, he’s told she’s an infiltrate from another country assigned to following her

    As is often said in the film, nothing is as it seems, and both Farrell and the audience are bamboozled more than once. The film has many twists and turns, all of which add up to a very absorbing movie. A weary-looking Pacino is excellent as always, and Farrell is effective

    This one keeps the surprises coming, so pay attention.

    “Avenging Angelo” Movie Review

    “Avenging Angelo” Plot Summary

    A woman (Madeleine Stowe) who has just discovered she is the daughter of a murdered Mafia chieftain (Anthony Quinn) seeks revenge, with the aide of her Father’s faithful bodyguard (Sylvester Stallone). add synopsis

    Good clean fun!

    I bought this movie for two reasons, first, I wanted to get something my wife and I could watch together and Wal-Mart was selling it for $5.50, and secondly, it was filmed partly in the city where I work, and I saw Stallone standing between two sound trucks, looking just like Sylvester Stallone as I was leaving my office one night. I had always thought I should have a look at the movie.

    I expected a grim-mouthed actioner, but having seen some of Stallone’s other work I should have known better. The movie is played with a lot of good humour, and fine interplay between Stallone and Stowe. There were a couple of places where I actually laughed out loud, and it’s hard to make me laugh.

    If you want a movie you can watch on a quiet night with your teen-aged kids and your wife, this’ll do fine.
