The Recruit

ActionAdventureThriller115 min

At the CIA's secret training ground known as the Farm, a gifted recruit is pushed through psychological drills, surveillance exercises, and a constant lesson in distrust. Colin Farrell is the young trainee trying to prove he belongs, while Al Pacino's seasoned mentor keeps raising the stakes and drawing him into a search for a possible mole inside the agency. As classroom tests start to blur with live operations, every interview, assignment, and instruction begins to look like part of a larger game.
