Traitor

For those of you who rave over Don Cheadle, Academy Award nominee and Golden Globe winning actor, Traitor probably won’t disappoint you. Yet, for those looking for a creative screenplay this movie is a traitor to the concept.
Yes it’s true that the story line is current with today’s international events and may give the viewer a better understanding of the plight of Arabs and why they join radical militant movements. And yes, the special effects, acting cast – Don Cheadle, Archie Panjabi, Guy Pearce, Lorena Gale, and Aly Khan, and directing by Jeffrey Nachmanoff are all solid. Yet, when it’s all said done – despite some great special effects- the basic story line has been done numerous times before and you may go away simply bored. -Henry
