THEIR ONLY WEAPON IS THE TRUTH.
In 2008, a year after losing his girlfriend in Iraq, war correspondent Thomas Anders (Rupert Friend) goes to Georgia where a conflict is brewing with Russia over South Ossetia. Not many reasonable people would sympathize with Russia and its overly aggressive behavior during its 2008 war with Georgia, but they were not the only sinners in that conflict. Renny Harlin doesn’t want to complicate anything, though. OK as an action movie and propaganda piece, but hard to take seriously when it comes across as Cliffhanger 2 sometimes. The cast is also a bit bland.
2011-U.S.-Georgia. 113 min. Color. Directed by Renny Harlin. Cast: Rupert Friend (Thomas Anders), Emmanuelle Chriqui (Tatia Meddevi), Richard Coyle (Sebastian Ganz), Heather Graham, Johnathon Schaech, Rade Sherbedgia… Andy Garcia, Val Kilmer.
