Louis Salinger (Clive Owen) Interpol-ügynök és Eleanor Whitman (Naomi Watts) kerületi ügyész-helyettes elszántan küzdenek, hogy leleplezzék a világ egyik legnagyobb befolyású bankját, amely gyanújuk szerint a világ különböző pontjain végrehajtott terrorcselekményeket pénzel. Nyomozásuk során egyre mélyebbre hatolnak egy olyan világba, melyet a kapzsiság, a korrupció és a gyilkosság ural, és rövidesen olyan nemzetközi összeesküvés célpontjában találják magukat, ahol a túlélésben csak egymásra számíthatnak.

Egy tisztességes, bár kissé beszédes, paranoiás kémfilm egy kiváló lövöldözéssel. A karakterek boncolgatása itt nem igazán fontos, de annál jobban tetszik Clive Owen testbeszédének ékesszólása. Argentin típusú karakter, pont neki való. Naomi arcának csak marketing célja van, a plakáton. A sztori meglehetősen túlkombinált, de lebilincselő, és a halk, lüktető elektronikus zene ritmusára folyamatosan izgalomban tart (egyszóval jó szórakozás szurkolni egy szimpatikus fenegyereknek, aki szembeszáll a világ leghatalmasabb manipulátorával). Építészetileg lenyűgöző ház a sziklákon sem hiányzik, mint egy Bond-filmben. Szó sincs az új Bourne filmről, és a Michael Clayton film is mélyebbre ment, de Pollack A tolmács című filmjéhez ez a Tykwer kifejezetten üzlet-orientált alkotása közel áll.

Tom Tykwer is definitively becoming a polymath who can inventively shoot any genre, but this time I can't buy it from his hand. He does a guide to the world of frauds with ease, but at the same time, every time the viewer catches up with the screenplay through the various twists and turns, it adds another twist and shows that this time it won't lend a helping hand to those lagging behind. Any positive impressions are mainly gained by Clive Owen, once again in the role of an indefatigable hitchhiker. In his performance, the perfectly escalating shootout became, without exaggeration, a legendary scene.

While it looks like an action-packed romp, except that it's not action, unless you count the shootout in the gallery, which is the only one that really caught my attention. Otherwise? Not that great. I'd give it 2 stars, but because it ends quite realistically and believably, indeed it's all pretty believable in general (their injuries, for example – they really are injured, they go to the doctor and don't miraculously recover from their injuries in the next scene). So I really appreciate that about this film. Then there's also my favorite actor starring – another plus. The romance wasn't there, which may be a shame for the viewer's attention span, but maybe that's what really makes the film more believable... anyway, check it out if you like Clive and if you like the worker ant wanting to bring down the supervillain corporation.

A bureaucracy bound James Bond from the financial world. Tykwer approaches this untraditionally, almost unwatchably. I was expecting something like Michael Clayton in a different environment with scores of attractive locations. And I got Michael Clayton in a different atmosphere with scores of attractive locations. The only action scene is absolutely fantastic (not just due to the choice of locations), but it is completely out of place in this movie. A calm, serious tempo where even the nerve-racking chases happen at brisk walking pace and all of a sudden we get an action movie like from John Woo, and with humor to boot! And then a return to the slow, but in no way boring tempo. If the Whitman character weren’t so superfluous and those several rather laughable genre clichés (it applies that they might not have mattered in a different movie, but here they are simply eyesores), then I would have enjoyed Tykwer’s idea of a thriller, and raised no objections.

Tom Tykwer, clearly impressed by the recent "Bond films" and the "Bourne Trilogy," decided to make his own contribution to the theme of lone agents standing up to powerful multinational organizations, and the result is a very unconventional, yet impressive spectacle. Although the characters are in constant motion, the locations change and the plot moves along briskly. Tykwer's storytelling is surprisingly sparing, slightly distant (the almost fetishistic emphasis on modern architecture), and relatively slow-paced (except for the unique shootout, which is unparalleled). Yet, amazingly, it all works. After seeing a film like this, one can only get the impression that banks are the evil of this world - if one has forgotten that they caused the current economic crisis. :) PS: The reference to The Jackal pleased me. Power.
