Academy Award winner George Clooney stars in the title role of this suspense thriller. As an assassin, Jack (played by Mr. Clooney) is constantly on the move and always alone. After a job in Sweden ends more harshly than expected for this American abroad, Jack retreats to the Italian countryside. He relishes being away from death for a spell as he holes up in a small medieval town. While there, Jack takes an assignment to construct a weapon for a mysterious contact, Mathilde (Thekla Reuten). Savoring the peaceful quietude he finds in the mountains of Abruzzo, Jack accepts the friendship of local priest Father Benedetto (Paolo Bonacelli) and pursues a torrid liaison with a beautiful woman, Clara (Violante Placido). Jack and Clara's time together evolves into a romance,one seemingly free of danger. But by stepping out of the shadows, Jack may be tempting fate.

  • This movie is phenomenal.

    It's artistic, atmospheric, and suspenseful, without resorting to cheap flashiness and artificiality.

    I wish Hollywood would make more films like this.

  • George Clooney has been caught with a prostitute. Come to my channel for details.

  • I enjoyed this movie.

  • the clear message of this movie is the american good, other people suck

  • @iswim2themoon The only thought that was provoked in my mind was "who the hell didn't fire the editor that chose to put tiny white subtitles at the very bottom of the screen and over white backgrounds?" Besides that, the visual style of the movie was pretty cool. But I gotta say.... the whole movie could have been in italian with no subtitles and it would have made just as much sense. Transformers had a better story.

  • Film is well-crafted and thought-provoking. A movie for adults wanting a real story line. Clooney at his best! As for the "kids" who want "action" --- go rent "Transformers"!

  • Thumbs up if Mr Dignan sent you here!

  • Don't bother watching this movie if you're someone who likes any kind of action, this movie is very slow and boring. Plus it's loaded with tiny tiny subtitles, I stopped trying to read them after the first set because they're too small to read and I didn't care enough about this movie to bother.

  • @kan8dns Totally agree. This movie was so F'ing boring.

  • I was very disappointed in this movie. It was so boring and the gunsmith scenes and junkyard fabrication of parts was ridiculous. A total waste of time in my opinion.
