| Rendition
Quote: Rendition
When Egyptian born terrorism suspect, Anwar El-Ibrahimi disappears on a flight from South Africa to Washington DC, his American wife, Isabella travels to Washington to try and learn the reason for his disappearance. Meanwhile, at a secret detention facility somewhere outside the US, CIA analyst Douglas Freeman is forced to question his assignment in an attempt to save thousands as he becomes a party to the unorthodox interrogation of El-Ibrahim. | Saw this earlier today and was suprised at how good it actually was... excellent cast, solid script and well driven plot.
Anyone else seen it? |

As far as being on topic is concerned, Rendition hit its point, but failed to really entertain me as a drama.
The heavy hitters that were so clearly advertised in the trailer (Witherspoon and Streep) had been reduced to mere bit parts overall, giving way to the other various side stories, which, to me at least, seemed unnecessarily overemphasized. | |

I found it watchable... but thought it was a little too self-aware.
