Roman Polanski's mystery thriller is a well directed drama. The political intrigue was suspenseful and the ominous tone reflected real life frustration and dread at the tail-end of the War on Terror. Pierce Brosnan is both compelling and pathetic as a tool of a politician. Ewan McGregor is cast well as the naive apolitical hack who uncovers a conspiracy.
