Review of Act of Vengeance

"We're both able to figure people out at a glance. We've got the wrong guy." After a man is taken into FBI custody for terrorist activity his wife (Gershon) wants to know why. When two Turkish agents show up in New York to bring him back an accident occurs that results in his escape. With the threat of an attack on New York looming it is a race against time to recapture him. But is he the one they really should be looking for? This is a very complicated movie to review. Much like most people's thoughts on the currant anti-terrorism strategy we want them stopped, but at the same time we don't want them involved in our everyday life. This is a movie about just that. Following leads that sometimes divert their attention from the actual problem and being so stuck on one idea that it is hard to admit you may be wrong. Without sounding too political this is a movie that points out the flaws in the system but also shows what happens when it works correctly. The acting is good and the ending will shock you and break your heart. A movie that keeps you guessing right up until the end and makes you wonder how often this really happens. This has the feel of a TV movie and the quality could have been better but that's one of the only complaints. This is a movie worth watching. Overall, a very interesting and intriguing movie about how the FBI tracks terrorists and what happens when they are wrong. I say B.
