Staying True to Your Beliefs
Routine Rescue Movie
I saw "Infidel", starring Jim Caviezel-Person of Interest_tv, The Passion of the Christ; Claudia Karvan-The Darkside, Daybreakers; Hal Ozsan-Jessica Jones_tv, Dawson's Creek and Stelio Savante-Bad Ass, My Super Ex_Girlfriend. This movie is based on a true story about a Christian, Jim, that is invited to Cairo to speak about military uprisings in the Middle East. Claudia plays his wife, who advises him that he should not go-it's kind of dangerous in that region of the world and Claudia works for the State Department, so she knows what she is talking about. Jim goes anyways-Duh-and makes a Christian statement while appearing on Cairo tv which sets off some extremists. Hal and some of his friends-extremists-kidnap Jim and move him to a secluded spot in Iran. Claudia tries to get the US government to launch a rescue but to no avail. She then decides to go in and see if she can get him out herself. Stelio offers her his assistance-he has some connections. The first part of the movie is a little routine-with the torture scenes-but the last part is a little better in the rescue operation. It's rated "R" for violence and language and has a running time of 1 hour & 47 minutes. It's not one that I would buy on DVD but it would be a good rental.
