Review of Traitor (2008) by Kelley H — 12 Jul 2009
Cheadle is exemplary in the role of Samir Horn. The title gives away nothing, as you spend the entire plot attempting to understand who is traitor to what, to whom. It is assumed that Horn is a traitor to his faith, though nothing is as it seems.
While action and drama is the primary focus, the audience is given a crash course in the realities of terrorism, and the bigotries and hypocrisies that come with it. The film is still entertaining despite its intense unraveling of post 9/11 moral ambiguity.
