Traitor

Samir Horn is an arms dealer that is arrested and thrown into prison. While there he is befriended by members of the Jihad at the same time he is being followed by the FBI, whom are convinced that he is entangled in a covert operation.

This movie has been compared to the Bourne films....that is kind of a stretch. This movie actually has such a great twisted story but the pacing is so completely off that the audience loses interest.

I would blame most of this on the editing...something was just off. It was as though the camera was moving fast, the music was intense, but what was actually happening on screen couldn't keep up and totally fell flat. In fact the pacing is so slow that the audience is always one step (if not more) ahead of the story. This was a well thought out espionage story that was told so slow it becomes pitifully predictable.

This was a huge disappointment, because again the story was there--Post just didn't hold up their end.

** Rentable

Rated PG-13 (for language and violence)
