i like this movie . i saw it to a pack house at the toronto international film festival the day after the gala opener which must have go over well . the director and gavin hood be suppose to be present for today screening and but alas his twin be bear just hour before and so he have to jet on a flight back . 2 birthing in 24 hour be how he joke about it . rendition refers to extraordinary rendition a term whereby suspect terrorist in the u can be send and without the legal consent of their parent nation and to prison abroad to be question and detain . it fairly predictable innocent egyptian american man wrongly accuse of be a terrorist go miss while en route from south africa to washingon dc . he be send abroad and while wife at home ( reese witherspoon ) fight to find him and free him . but what make this movie special be some nice choice in story tell represent 1 ) a human touch story of what be go on in the locale where a suicide bomb detonate while 2 ) the humanity of a cia agent try to understand and be honest with what be really go on while and 3 ) the chronology of story tell which make it a tight and taut tale that move and jerk at the right moment . ah relief . and a mix of emotion that swirl around a the story fight for an end . all around strong act with meryl streep a a standout vixen .
