For a movie that has been described by every source as a thriller with a political agenda, it doesn't deliver on either of those fronts. 'The Company You Keep' seems smarter and sophisticated, with an emphasis on realistic presentation, but it's just dull. Nothing much of interest happens for a good portion of the running time, making for a slow and un-engaging two hours. It's overcrowded with a surplus amount of recognizable actors, but most don't have much to do, only showing up for one or two scenes to little effect.

If you don't like overtly political movies for the same reason I don't, that they're too pushy and unrealistic, then you will still enjoy this movie. It's neither pushy nor unrealistic.

Just back from having watched this I was surprised. It was much better then I thought it was going to be. Solid thriller, Shia LaBeouf puts in a very, very good performance as a young reporter. Redford is also good. I would recommend this film without question.
