A brilliant young CIA trainee is asked by his mentor to help find a mole in the Agency.
In an era when the country&#39;s first line of defense, intelligence, is more important than ever, this story opens the CIA&#39;s infamous closed doors and gives an insider&#39;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&#39;s just the person that Walter Burke wants in the Agency. James regards the CIA&#39;s mission as an intriguing alternative to an ordinary life, but before he becomes an Ops Officer, James has to survive the Agency&#39;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&#39;s old maxims are true: &quot;trust no one&quot; and &quot;nothing is what it seems.&quot;
......Pretty good movie, very rote though-like most other comments here, I think that this one has been done to death before. I liked it and yeah there were a couple-3 ways this coulda gone, but you can easily guess what those 3 options are half ways thru.<br/><br/>Pacino does his usual walk-thru ala &#39;the Insider&#39; and &#39;Insomnia&#39;, you know what you are getting here, Pacino on cruise control. Farrell keeps making these interesting genre flix but isn&#39;t anything more to me than an Irish Tom Cruise-Brad Pitt wanna be, if that. You don&#39;t really buy that he is some sorta computer whiz either, he comes off as being thicker than a brick on some very basic plot points.<br/><br/>Decent atmosphere, action, etc.--check it out if you don&#39;t mind seeing a rather clichéd movie w/ some big names kinda going thru the motions.<br/><br/>**1/2 outta ****
&quot;The Recruit&quot; takes so long to get off the ground it begins to take on a kind of strange fascination. You find yourself asking where can this film be going. What&#39;s it actually about? And then a little further into the movie you begin to ask yourself a much more pertinent question. Why am I watching this? As the plot, (what plot), begins to take some sort of shape you keep hoping it&#39;s going to get better, that there will be some twist you can&#39;t second-guess, that Al Pacino can&#39;t really have sold his soul to the devil. He is the so-called star but it&#39;s really Colin Farrell&#39;s movie. He is the recruit of the title, (oh, it&#39;s the CIA he is being recruited into, by Pacino, in case you&#39;re wondering). He wants to find out what happened to his father so he goes along with a plot to fish out a mole in the organization.<br/><br/>Somewhere in the distant past someone had the the (not so) bright idea that if Al Pacino can play such a Mephistopolean character as Michael Corleone then he can go on playing variations of the devil until the end of his days. Wrong! Pacino sleepwalks through this movie knowing he should be somewhere else, anywhere else. Farrell, whom I genuinely believe to be one of the best young actors in the movies today, does his best but you know his heart isn&#39;t in it.<br/><br/>Just before this movie, the director, Roger Donaldson, made a great film called &quot;Thirteen Days&quot; about the Cuban Missile Crisis, not to mention &quot;The Bounty&quot; and &quot;No Way Out&quot;. However, he also made &quot;Spieces&quot; and &quot;Dante&#39;s Peak&quot; so you may ask yourself where does he go wrong? At what point? By now you will have figured it out; &quot;The Recruit&quot; is in the veritable pits class. Ah, but then is it, or is the rug being pulled out from under us? Are we watching some great post-modern spy movie masterpiece in disguise? You tell me.
It's the kind of movie you can sit back and enjoy, as long as you don't make the mistake of thinking too much.
