SPARTAN
What an entertaining picture! I'm a Mamet fan so bear that in mind, but I am NOT a Val Kilmer fan and I enjoyed his performance in this picture. It can be interpreted as a response to "Wag The Dog" I suppose, but taken on its own terms it's a taut, suspenseful, enjoyable thriller with an intriguing heart about the conflict between cynicism and hope.
