I'm off to see it! After his Dragnet, O'Neal should be a great Mamet player. Been missing Mantenga the last few films, though.

Loved it! Taut, captivating, riveting, believable except for the Deus Ex Machina ending cited by Ebert. Rather humorless for Mamet, however. Great contemporary shots of Boston's Big Dig and our new bridge.
Agree on Mantegna. My absolute Mamet favorite is "Homocide", with him and Macy and the other usual suspects.

  Best new "line to remember" from a movie.
  Too bad O'Neill didn't have a larger part. I felt like I saw two movies: the government mission and the private mission. Pretty big slap at the office of POTUS. It could lead to endless discussion of which presidents were combined to produce the heartless character he was.
