Unthinkable (2010) 7/10

Starring : Samuel L Jackson, Carrie-Anne Moss, Michael Sheen
Director : Peter Woodward
Running Time : 98 mins

FBI agent Helen Brody (Moss) is tasked with finding the location of three potential bomb threats when a video tape is delivered to the government by terror suspect Steven Younger (Sheen). However, when she is introduced to a professional CIA interrogator who calls himself H (Jackson), she starts to wonder if they are taking the whole interrogation a bit too far.

This is possibly Samuel L Jackson’s least likeable role, including his loveable rogue Abel Turner in Lakeview Terrace. His role is probably a little too true to life, making Americans look like the kind of people who think they can fight terrorism by performing terrorist acts. Do not watch this if you are a patriotic American – it’ll probably just make you angry. If your not a patriotic American, you might actually find something of interest here…
