I liked all those set pieces where they set up these elaborate schemes, and you're not sure who the good guy is, and the bad guy.

Pacino's puppet-stringing of his recruit is reminiscent of Peter O'Toole's manipulative character in 1980's 'The Stunt Man.'

Many would believe Pacino could do no wrong but he has. The Recruit serves only to ignite a pilot light in the imagination of espionage lovers everywhere.

It's nothing but style and noise, threadbare of content, empty of ideas.
