New Release Tuesday: Shadow Dancer

Shadow Dancer IMDb
Decent thriller about a lady that's involved with the IRA.  It got a little tense halfway through.  Other than that, overall, pretty good for a one night of entertainment.  This doesn't cover what the IRA is and what is it about, so you will have to have some kind of knowledge behind that group.  This simply follows a lady that gets caught during a terrorist act.  She is given a decision: either to go to prison and not see her son for a very long time or turn in her brothers with IRA connections.  Tough choice.  Clive Owen is the official that gives her those options.  My favorite parts to this movie are the surprises at the end.  Nobody saw it coming.  This is in par with a Liam Neeson movie called, "5 Minutes of Heaven."
