June 11 marks the 35th birthday of actor Joshua Jackson.

As Sarah, Brit Marling plays a former FBI agent turned private security consultant who is paid to infiltrate a radical environmental group called The East. She more than confirms buzz that she will be one of film's next major leading women, and she's working with a strong set-up for a thriller, in a community that couldn't be more relevant in the age of Occupy Wall Street, and »

There's plenty to admire, but ultimately this thriller is as. »
