Fair Game (2010)
Directed by Doug Liman
this film based on real events stars Naomi Watts, Sean Penn, Noah
Emmerich and Ty Burrell. A covert CIA agent has her identity exposed
by the US government after her husband suggests they mislead the
public on the case for the invasion of Iraq.
When dealing with this
sort of material there is always going to be a question of accuracy
and it does seem like this film does have a bias in mind. It is a
shame that the plot takes what is an important issue and only shows
one point of view rather than exploring the issue properly. As a spy
film this is well made and well grounded but unfortunately is a bit
more of a propaganda piece than it needed to be.
2/5
