Business or pleasure

Anne has her way ... sure that's so original she never heard that before ... not. Of course when it comes to this movie, this may or may not be right. She has to uncover something along with the audience ... she has to figure something out ... and there are people in this that try to cover up what she is trying to figure out. The question is, will we uncover what the truth is, before we are .. faced with it? No pun intended and you'll know what I mean, once you see the movie.

There are certain twists and turns that we may not expect - or maybe it was just me. But there are some shocking elements to the whole thing. The acting is more than good and the suspense is high from start to finish. Style wise this knows how to draw you in and it knows how to keep you on the edge. Still there are moments that may be drawn out a bit too much and I would totally understand if some feel that the ending may be a bit too clever for how it was set up.

Still this has style and is very well made ... a thriller that is clever, for better or worse.

a grim grind turns into a confused thriller

In 1982, journalists Elena McMahon (Anne Hathaway) and Alma Guerrero (Rosie Perez) are traveling with rebels in El Salvatore. They barely escape murderous government soldiers and Elena finds evidence of munitions from America. Two years later, she is pushed off her investigation and assigned to follow the Regan campaign. Her father Dick McMahon (Willem Dafoe) is struggling. Her investigation leads to exports of excess American munitions to Nicaragua and Washington insider Treat Morrison (Ben Affleck).

The first half is a grim grind. Hathaway is doing a rough no-makeup character. The film is washed out. The camera is often close up. I'm willing to go with the style and at least, Hathaway is trying to do something different. The overall pacing is rather boring and then there is a change in the middle. It starts with something questionable and it doesn't stop. The bad guys try to set her up with a brick of coke. My question is why they wouldn't simply kill her in that random Central American hotel and plant the coke on her. I don't get her relationship with Treat. I don't get why she's using the fake passport. I don't get a lot of this story. I'm willing to believe that she's not doing the smartest things but these things still need to be set up better. It is bad writing compounded by bad directing.

It's not like buying ice cream

Anne Hathaway plays Elena McMahon a fictional reporter for the Atlantic Monthly. She is caught up in reporting on US arms going to Central America, something she discovers her ailing father (Willem Dafoe) is involved. She fills in for him to get a story and for the million, which she discovers is actually cocaine.

In the film, the character lost a breast to cancer so they felt a need to show Anne minus a breast, something they could have left out. The ending was odd and without the typical closure, although we know what happened and the criminals got their own TV show on Fox News.

Guide: F-word. Nudity.
