Movie Review: Breach

Worth Seeing
by Ralph

I personally love movies based on real life stories. This one seems very true to life which is why nothing blows up, no one jumps out of helicopters onto moving trucks, etc. Rent Mission Impossible if you want fiction. Having said that, this movie was excellent. Chris Cooper played a very believable and deep main character as agent Hanson. Ryan's acting was pretty good as well. The story runs like a narrative account with a minimum of buildup and dramatic music. Think of it as movie style documentary and you will probably have the right expectations when you go in. I and my girlfriend really enjoyed it and talked about it long after it was over. If you want action and major drama this is really not your movie. But, if you are curious about a real life event and understand that then you will like the acting, characters and story and you should go.
