The Recruit

(2003)Directed by Roger Donaldson115 min · PG-13Action, Thriller
“Trust. Betrayal. Deception. In the C.I.A. nothing is what it seems.”

At the Farm, the CIA's secret training grounds, a class of recruits learns to watch their backs and trust no one. James Clayton (Colin Farrell) is the brilliant one, pulled in by veteran instructor Walter Burke (Al Pacino), and Layla Moore (Bridget Moynahan) trains alongside him. Roger Donaldson keeps the pace quick, and the cost of one wrong call is Clayton's place in the program, and maybe more.
