Review of Rendition

Rendition (2007)
4/10
Disappointing
30 June 2012
Warning: Spoilers
First of all, the movie was slower and thus longer than it should have been, besides, the flow was so boring that you'd feel sleepy even if you start watching Rendition after a 10 hour long good sleep. Secondly, the so-called 'twist' was totally pointless and awkward, leading to thoughts along the lines of "So, I wasted my time waiting for this?" Not cool. Another problem was the endless dialogues in a foreign language (Egyptian Arabic, maybe?) and the long silence/pauses within the dialogues. Boring, leading to a good deal of yawning, even! Furthermore, the ending was full of questions. What happened to the CIA agent? What was the whole connection between Rashid's phone calls to Anwar El-Ibrahimi? All in all, I'd say this movie is a waste of time, also a waste of this cast and such a subject that could have been reflected in a much better way had the plot been different.
