Rendition | Full Movie | Movies Anywhere

The sort of schematic slog that stirs more discussion about the cluelessness of the filmmakers than anything else

Rendition features decent performances by all its actors, although few are given any chance to shine.

Rather then telling a story with characters growing and exploring the politics of the world around them, they simply take up the roles of well-dictated automatons.

The film unfolds brilliantly and methodically, as director Gavid Hood's vivid characters are unwittingly drawn together.

But Rendition, in the end, is a Lifetime movie with pretensions toward being a political thriller. (They could even call it YOU HAVE MY HUSBAND! since Witherspoon shrieks that at Streep in a ludicrous scene.)
