Paul Shepherdson (Richard Gere) is a retired CIA Agent. When a Senator is assassinated, Paul is brought back in as it appears the crime was done by a Russian agent who was long thought to be dead, killed by Paul. Paul is partnered with a young FBI agent , Ben Geary (Topher Grace) who Paul wishes would just let go and stop pursuing the case. But as time goes on the two of them get deeper and deeper into the mystery and more danger minute by minute.

This is an action/spy thriller. Richard Gere is really good here, and plays the cold CIA agent guy to the T. Topher Grace is the Robin to his Batman, and is very devoted. There is lots of action, and lots of twists and turns. Paul is trying his best to keep Ben and his family off the case. We don’t know for sure if he’s got ulterior motives, or if he’s just trying to protect him. Ben is having none of that. He’s in it to win it, and to solve the mystery once and for all.

It’s not the perfect film, but it’s certainly enjoyable. It’s not extremely cerebral. Instead this film depends on the action and adventure part to fill the time. But it’s a good story, and the actors are very good in this film. I enjoyed it. It’s not one of those memorable Hollywood blockbusters, but it’s a really decent action spy thriller that’s well worth a few hours of your time.
