September 4.I think I liked "The American." It wasn't what I thought, but, I didn't hate it.
It started with George Clooney and a gun fight, so I thought it was going to be an action-packed movie. Even the poster <--- shows Clooney on the run. But, it is not an action movie.
There's a lot of quiet waiting and even the gunfight scenes are quick and clean. Clooney hides out, waiting for his next assignment, in a small Italian village where he befriends a priest and a prostitute.
There's something very cool about the movie, but also something missing. Some sort of ... energy, I guess. I don't think Clooney smiles once. There's no levity.
