The Recruit: (Dir. Roger Donaldson) (2003): In an era when the country's first line of defense human intelligence is more important than ever comes a thriller that gives an insider's view into the CIA's secret training ground: The Farm. James Clayton (Colin Farrell) might not have the attitude of a typical recruit but he is one of the smartest graduating seniors in the country - and he's just the person that Walter Burke (Al Pacino) wants in the Agency. James regards the CIA's mission as an intriguing alternative to an ordinary life but before he becomes an Ops... Officer James has to survive the Farm where the veteran Burke teaches him the ropes and the rules of the game. James quickly rises through the ranks and falls for Layla (Bridget Moynahan) one of his fellow recruits.
