cia analyst douglas freeman ( gyllenhaal ) get to see his first secret location interrogation when anwar ( metwally ) be accuse of have contact with a known terrorist bomb maker . anwar wife ( witherspoon ) be frantic regard the whereabouts of her husband . don not you just hate it when the title of a movie send you to a dictionary . i must have an old edition a this rendition be not a musical piece . no and it the government way of legally take a resident or citizen somewhere to interrogate him and possibly use some torture to get the desired information . while watch this movie i be remind of a similar story line in the crossing jordan tv show ( now off the air ) and and i expect we will see even more of these story line . it inevitable . the event of 911 be the catalyst . this be a tough one to watch because we do not like to see people torture and our government not tell the truth about thing . we like the idea that no matter what happen or happen that we can go somewhere to find answer and but when that door be close to u and we be truly lose and without hope a anwar wife be . performance by all be first class and it possible we may see more of igai naor ( i have no idea how to pronounce it ) because he resemble and can act like telly savalas . no kidding . violence represent yes and sex represent no and nudity represent no and language represent yes .
