I missed this one when it was in the movies, but rented the Blue Ray tonight. As "ripped from the headlines" political thrillers go, this was pretty good. Russell Crowe is growing into a his recent roles as a paunchy, middle aged geek and Ben Affleck is OK as congressman in a scary situation. It was tense right up to the last minute and who can't believe that paramilitary defense contractors can't get scary. Any other comments?
