She is assigned to go undercover to infiltrate an anarchist collective known for executing covert attacks upon major corporations.

Am interesting perspective on what actions are morally acceptable in the struggle for societal protection (as opposed to simply promoting an idea) and what consumption or lifestyle choices we should make.

I loved this movie! The 3 main actors, who I already loved, did such a fantastic job in this film. I was absolutely blown away! Ellen Page is barely recognizable...I mean this physically, yes--but mostly how different this role is from anything(at least that I know of) that she has done before. The storyline is great and it really pulls at your heartstrings but at the same time your adrenaline is always pumping. Don't miss this incredible film with these amazing actors or u will live to regret it I promise.

Could have been a lot better. Great ideas, great twist, so how did that culminate in a totally predictable movie? Watch and see.
