Please don't spend money on this.
Beautiful, moving film.
If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.
Read a book, take a walk, play with your kids but don't waste a minute on this movie. I got it from my local library and I was so happy I didn't actually pay to watch this junk. Radcliffe was great as Harry Potter but I never believed he was an undercover FBI agent. Wrong casting for Daniel. Next time try playing a wedding planner or a dress designer.
I m impressed he improves a lot abd tried to change image from Harry Potter role. He looks like Justin Timberlake in this one.
Quote from the movie "it's not because you won't look at a problem that it ceases to exist" Then it courageously proceed to investigate a white supremacists terrorist plot. Because of course this is a very real and current threat. Thanks for you courage Hollywood. Without you, we would never have been aware of the true face of radicalism...
Daniel Radcliffe is working hard in his career to take on some interesting, off-type roles. Here he plays an FBI agent who goes undercover as a white supremacist at the encouragement of another agent, played by Toni Collette.Radcliffe only partially succeeds as he is an atypical White Supremacist, just as this is an atypical role for him. White Supremacists are fanatics; they are angry and vicious people as well. As Nate Foster, Radcliffe comes off as a curious young guy toying with the idea of hating everyone.The film reminded me of The Infiltrator with Bryan Cranston, in that Nate forms a relationship with someone on the inside. In Nate's case, it's Sam (Gerry Conway), a seemingly nice guy with a family and a love of classical music, and Nate just doesn't get his commitment and struggles with it. There are scary and dramatic scenes, and Radcliffe has one thing no one can take from him - he's likable and makes you care not just for him but the operation as well.Good, not great. Radcliffe needs to continue seeking roles that challenge him but at the same time, he needs to stretch his acting chops.
