The Informer
Peter Koslow (Joel Kinnaman) is a FBI informant working to bust a Polish drug lord when an undercover NYPD officer is killed in a botched sting operation. Koslow is hung out to dry as the mob & the FBI put him in a squeeze play sending back to prison to do their dirty work & putting his wife & daughter at risk. Rosamund Pike is his FBI handler & Clive Owen is her superior. Common plays the NYC cop investigating the death of the undercover officer. It’s intense drama as double-crossed prisoner Koslow sinks deeper & deeper in trouble & is left to devise his own rescue plan with everyone seemingly out to kill him. This thrilling crime film is driven by its evil villains & not knowing who you can really trust.
Alien gives it 3 “The General” stars out of 4.
