Plot |
CIA Agent Muir (Redford) is working his last day before retiring when one of his protégés Bishop (Pitt) has been taken prisoner by the Chinese. During the investigation Muir recalls the details of how he recruited Bishop and the missions they worked together on. At the same time, he's doing all he can do to manage Bishop's escape at the same time that the CIA considers him expendable.

Pros |
This is a fun movie with lots of twists and turns. It grabs your attention from the very beginning and keeps it throughout. Redford is still one of the best. |
Cons |
If you're one of those nit picky individuals that hate plot holes, this film has a few. |

Recommendation |
This is one of my favorite "sit down and kick back" movies. Watching Muir do the things he does under the noses of the people he's working for and against is a blast. |
