It is an old-fashioned drama through and through, with some impressive acting from Tahar Rahim, Jodie Foster, and Benedict Cumberbatch.

[S]atisfying...because it reckons with actual recent history, and because we get to watch billboard-size luminaries like Jodie Foster and Benedict Cumberbatch do the reckoning.

Without even attempting to assess the post-9/11 scars on the American psyche that enabled this kind of reprehensible behaviour, it catastrophically fails its audience. Full Review

Rating: 2/5 -- Macdonald and his producers and writers wanted too much... The result? A bland smattering of each that teases us with the possibility of complex roles. Full Review

Product Description:

After the tragic 9/11 terror attacks, Mohamedou Ould Slahi (Tahar Rahim) is captured by American authorities on suspicions that he is connected with those events. He is then detained in Guantanamo Bay, where he spends 14 years behind bars without being charged or given a chance to have a trial. Just as he is losing hope, he meets Nancy Hollander (Jodie Foster), a defense attorney, and her associate Teri Duncan (Shailene Woodley). Together, they start their campaign for justice, no matter how controversial it might be. Directed by Kevin Macdonald.
