Quickie: The International
The International–***
Quickie Review
An Interpol agent (Clive Owen) and a Manhattan assistant district attorney (Naomi Watts) attempt to take on an international bank that has expanded into arms dealing. A solid, compelling thriller with two unlikely leads and even more unlikely director in Tom Tykwer, The International has all the right moves but reaches climax a little too quickly. Sure, the Guggenheim shootout may be one of the best action sequences ever put to film, but the improbable and otherwise lazy third act makes you wish you had left when the shooting stopped. Also starring Armin Mueller-Stahl and Ulrich Thomsen.

I cannot wait to study more of this great topic. So much today Ive never even talked about. You sure did put the latest twist on something that Ive heard a huge amount of about. I dont believe Ive actually read something that does this subject nearly as good justice as you really did.
