RAVE - Closed Circuit

An overly familiar title - although, with movie producers clearly employing thesauri to name their products, that's not a massive shock.

Stars Eric Bana - why employ an Australian actor to play an English barrister? I know a couple of barristers (unprofessionally, of course) who are nothing like the prissy smart asses played by Bana and Rebecca Hall.

The film is about a terrorist bomb in London. Bana is the defendant's attorney, Hall is the defendant's personal advocate.

I really liked the story: serious, unpredictable, and well told - despite the category of 'terrorist court drama' not being underpopulated.
