"The Patriots": A real spy story

Movies from comedy to drama to your favorite Hollyweird Star.

Yvan Attal leaves Paris after his 18th birthday and immigrates to Israel to make something of his life. Soon he is recruited and trained by Mossad and then given over to the rogue Unit 238 which pulls most of the dirt and covert ops. The story takes us to Paris to gather nuke information from a French engineer who fails pray to both Attal's plotting and the charms of a very Amazon Sandrine Kimberlain. Next their attentions move to the U.S. where Richard Masur (NSA analyst), who reveling in his benign Jewishness, is willingly recruited by Unit 238.
This film is compelling due to its reality and action. One gets the feel of "what" and "how" things really work when it comes to recruiting and performing operations.
The film is 2:18 but seems to go by quickly. It is filled with a mixture of emotions from being for Israel (the little guy) to being shocked by their abject amorality to wondering if, in some way, this was a French postcard for anti-semitism.
I found it enjoyable and think it's a good way to spend the time.

They would. It's a fact. A US Navy ship was attacked. Remember? nt - tinear 14:32:55 03/08/07 (1)

Surprisingly, we've never made a movie about it, right? This flick throws a weird light. * - mr grits 14:51:08 03/08/07 (0)
