Genre: Crime / Drama / Mystery / Thriller Director(s): John Crowley Release Date: 28 August 2013 Movie rating: 6.2

When you take the drama elements from "Syriana", make the government function as a Big Brother, as that is the case in "Enemy of the State", and add a dash of tension, not to much, but just enough, like in "The Ghost Writer", then you get a bad ass movie like a "Closed Circuit". This is a movie that makes you think and rethink. It is amazingly real life like, especially when you have a couple of ex-lovers in front of you as one on main characters. After a bomb blows of in one of the markets in London, special agencies and the police start questioning and investigating one of the most suspicious men in the country. During the investigation, both of the ex-lovers find out that he was a double agent who was supposed to lead the agencies to the bomb before it blows up, but fails. As both of the defenders search for the answers that aren't supposed to be found, she ends up in danger and he carries on his investigation by watching tapes from cameras he can get his hands on, because they are all wired up in a closed circuit. John Crowley has made sure to get the tension dosage right, just enough to keep it's audience sitting on the edges of their sofas and chairs during this 96 minute long drama with mystery and crime elements. It was released on August 2013.
