Terrorism honcho (Meryl Streep) willing to close their eyes and sad if you stop a terrorist attack. Things spark briefly when Witherspoon recruits an old boyfriend (Peter Sarsgaard), appeal his case to his boss, U.S. Senator (Alan Arkin), but most of director Gavin Hood (Tots) did not find a way to design the color line, despite these huge actors doing spirited work.
