Jamie recommends "State of Play"








If you're in the mood for a fast-paced, intellectual film, then State of Play might be the movie for you. Part political thriller, part "who done it," this film, made two hours fly by. Russell Crowe plays a reporter for the Washington Globe who takes an online reporter under his wing to investigate the death of a Congressman's aide. Complicating matters is the fact that Crowe's reporter is friends with congressman under investigation. The scenery in the film was great, as was the plot. The cast also includes a lot of great actors including Rachel McAdams, Ben Affleck, Helen Mirren and Jason Bateman. There is a slight violence and language, but this film would be suitable for those 13 and up.
