In an era when the country's first line of defense, intelligence, is more important than ever, this story opens the CIA's infamous closed doors and gives an insider's view into the Agency: how trainees are recruited, how they are prepared for the spy game, and what they learn to survive. James Clayton might not have the attitude of a typical recruit, but he is one of the smartest graduating seniors in the country - and he's just the person that Walter Burke wants in the Agency. James regards the CIA's mission as an intriguing alternative to an ordinary life, but before he becomes an Ops Officer, James has to survive the Agency's secret training ground, where green recruits are molded into seasoned veterans. As Burke teaches him the ropes and the rules of the game, James quickly rises through the ranks and falls for Layla, one of his fellow recruits. But just when James starts to question his role and his cat-and-mouse relationship with his mentor, Burke taps him for a special assignment to root out a mole. As the suspense builds toward a gripping climax, it soon becomes clear that the CIA's old maxims are true: "trust no one" and "nothing is what it seems."Actors

Enjoyable..
Not bad…
Not bad…I’m a big Pacino fan, so I’m a little biased. I think just about everything he does is good. The other co-stars did a good job, too.
I did not mind the twists. There weren’t that many,
and they had their place.
I like Pacino, but his style is getting old.
I liked it alot! Colin Farrel proves once again that he can act better than most
Entertaining - but I wish they drop all the stupid crypto virus crap.
Too much twisting for the sake of twisting for my taste.
I knew going in that the movie would have a convoluted story. But I was suprised at how much this movie twisted around to the point where it was just flopping and floundering like a fresh fish caught and dropped onto the pier deck.
There is a point where you can overdo the plot twists and this movie reached and exceeded that mark by a good margin. Still overall the movie was relatively entertaining and I’m all about seeing good old Scarface on the big screen.
Colin Farrell is shaping up to be a pretty good actor himself. Let’s see if his upcoming role as Bullseye in the movie Daredevil cheapens his hollywood credentials any.
nice twists, lil hard to fallow but decent
