Rendition - Movie Review

Rendition - When an Egyptian terrorism suspect "disappears" on a flight from Africa to Washington DC, his American wife (Reese Witherspoon) and a CIA analyst (Jake Gyllenhaal) find themselves caught up in a struggle to secure his release from a secret detention facility somewhere outside the US

This movie sucked. It was like reading a book except the book would have been a lot more interesting. They could have killed the main characters in this movie and I wouldn't have cared at all. This is not the worst movie I have ever seen but not something I want to pay 10 dollars to go see at the movie theater. Maybe it would have been good on DVD when I was tired and wanted to go to sleep quickly.
I haven't really liked Jake Gyllenhaal since he got his back broken on that mountain. You can make a million movies but you make one gay cowboy eating pudding on a mountain movie and that is all you will be remembered for. Reese Witherspoon was good in Freeway back in 1996 but hasn't done much since then.
