| Handlung (deutsch) | James Clayton (Colin Farrell) ist einer der Top-Auszubildenden für die heißen Jobs der CIA. Der junge Rekrut scheint genau derjenige zu sein, den sein exzentrischer Ausbilder Walter Burke (Al Pacino) haben will. Um jedoch den entscheidenden Schritt aus dem engsten Kreis der Anwärter zu machen, absolviert Clayton mit anderen Rekruten ein Top-Trainingsprogramm auf einer speziellen CIA-Farm, auf der, wie alle bald feststellen, sämtliche Regeln aufgehoben sind. Langsam lernen sie die Regeln des Spiels, von denen die wichtigste zu sein scheint, niemandem zu trauen, am allerwenigsten Burke, der seine künftigen Leute schließlich sogar für eine Maulwurfdecouvrierung abzieht. Wo sind die Grenzen des Spiels? |
| Handlung (englisch) | In an era when the country's first line of defense, intelligence, is more important than ever, this story opens the CIA's infamous closed doors and gives an insider's view into the Agency: how trainees are recruited, how they are prepared for the spy game, and what they learn to survive. James Clayton might not have the attitude of a typical recruit, but he is one of the smartest graduating seniors in the country - and he's just the person that Walter Burke wants in the Agency. James regards the CIA's mission as an intriguing alternative to an ordinary life, but before he becomes an Ops Officer, James has to survive the Agency's secret training ground, where green recruits are molded into seasoned veterans. As Burke teaches him the ropes and the rules of the game, James quickly rises through the ranks and falls for Layla, one of his fellow recruits. But just when James starts to question his role and his cat-and-mouse relationship with his mentor, Burke taps him for a special assignment to root out a mole. As the suspense builds toward a gripping climax, it soon becomes clear that the CIA's old maxims are true: ·trust no one· and ·nothing is what it seems.· |
