For formulaic good-guy, bad-guy Al Pacino in one of his 'devilish' roles check out The Recruit. Colin Farrell, the latest Irish bad-boy to grace our shores, plays a young man recruited by Pacino for the CIA. Ah - but things are not always what they seem.

If you  want a couple of hours of largely warmed-over, haven't I seen this before entertainment, and eye-candy in the form of Colin, then check out The Recruit. To tell the truth, save your money, or rent a video and see Pacino in one of his worthier roles.
