CGiii Comment
Eco-terrorism...and a little implausible.
It definitely delivers a message...but, it's all just too clean, too comfortable and far-fetched.
As 'entertainment' it does an adequate job...despite the rather rapid conclusion.
Trailer...
The(ir) Blurb...
A successful operative for an elite private intelligence firm is tasked with infiltrating an anarchist group known for executing covert attacks upon major corporations.
