Recruit, The
CIA chief Walter Burke (Pacino) recruits James Clayton (Farrell), an edgy computer genius, to The Agency and takes him to 'The Farm' - the secret training ground for gifted new operatives. Clayton, an ambitious maverick, soon finds himself being tested by Burke, as the ageing mentor ruthlessly attempts to find his protege's limits.

The stakes rise when Clayton clashes with Layla Moore (Moynahan), a beautiful fellow recruit. Their competitive one-up man-ship is equalled by an instant and passionate attraction that threatens to ruin both their chances. Who will make it through the rigorous selection process? What secret missions does Burke have in store for them if they graduate?

Al Pacino and Colin Farrell take us behind closed doors in this explosive CIA thriller.

Ageing CIA man Walter Burke (Pacino) comes to Boston to recruit the MIT's brilliant graduate, James Clayton (Farrell). Clayton is, reluctantly, lured into attending the CIA's gruelling secret training centre known as 'the Farm'.

As Clayton enters into a cat and mouse relationship with his mentor, he finds himself getting into a more loving relationship with fellow recruit Layla.

But then Burke gives Clayton a special assignment to root out a mole and soon he learns that nothing is what it seems. 

It charges along at great pace and the suspense builds with every scene - until a gripping climax that takes conspiracy thrillers to a whole new level.
