Eye In The Sky

Eye In The Sky is one of Alan Rickman's last performances and it is a commendable one.  Also starring Helen Mirren and Aaron Paul, it explores the complexities of intelligence gathering and the implications of drone warfare in the modern age.  A single mission that this film represents is played out and explored in a thoroughly engaging and thrilling edge of your seat manner that demands its audience think rather than satisfy the need for mindless action.  That is the true merit of this film, because ironically we are watching the major players be the engagers and audience alike.
