Review of The American (2010) by Zach S — 12 Jun 2012
Its a beautifully shot film with scenes tense as ice and slow pacing and an engagingly subdued performance from Clooney. BUT it does certainly have flaws. There a moments where it feels like it drags. Those moments are trying to use little to engage but fails to engage at all.
If 15 minutes were cut from it, it would be a bit better. But nevertheless it is suspenseful, subtle, and for me enjoyable. Just so long as i'm wide awake.
