i usually go to malco reviewer and then rotten tomato and to see what the consensus on a movie be . well after go to see this movie with some very hardcore friend or critic and we all agree and the professional be get pay off . if it wasn not for the good amateur malco reviewer and i would have miss a very good thought provoke movie . i disagree that this movie stereotype it character and they be anything but . the acting be rich and the character be memorable and very great act on all level and especially the main character and and respect be pay to traditional islam a oppose to it radical splinter . about cheadle character and you may have hear his performance be wooden and that be untrue and he deliver a move portrait of a tortured soul subject to a traumatic past and expose to soul rend choice . if you follow it and traitor will offer an excellent and thoughtful and journey into the heart of a complex issue .
