Good message about the excesses of the war on terror but bad execution
A terrorist cell is operating in Brooklyn motivated by U.S. policy against Iraq and it’s up to Denzel Washington as an FBI agent and Annette Bening as a CIA officer to try to stop it. The movie is a critique of the war on terror where Arabs are automatically considered suspicious and some are willing to take extreme measures and end people’s civil liberties to stamp out the threat. That’s also the reason why the story takes place in Brooklyn instead of Manhattan because the borough is far more multi-ethnic and therefore more people can be considered dangerous. The message is good but its execution is very mixed.<br /><br />I’m never going to turn down the opportunity to watch Denzel. I didn’t really care about Bening and Bruce Willis as an army general is a stereotype. The movie starts going big with the action scenes because Hollywood thinks it will be more exciting and therefore make more money. For example there’s a scene where a guy sets off a grenade. Somehow that blows up half a building and then the army shoots up the whole place. It’s an overkill of explosions and gunfire to try to create drama. The story also includes the threat of never ending terrorism which undermines its plot. In the end the negatives outweigh the positives.
