Profile

If you take anything away from this movie, it's that Latif is a talent to keep an eye on---and that social media isn't a wise place to trick/trap a terrorist.

An exploration of social networking truth and fantasy as a cat and mouse game with lethal stakes.

Profile is a fairly tasteless movie, though in a sort of totally earnest way that will probably garner it admirers in proportion to the haters.

Profile uses the trappings of a ripped-from-the-headlines story and elevates it into an effective little thriller steeped in modern social media and a catfishing pas de deux.

While it's no surprise that [the undercover journalist] starts to find her ISIS contact charming, Profile is absorbing because of how effectively it puts us in her shoes ... then why she begins to think of the recruiter with compassion.
