An interesting movie about the innerworking of terrorist cells and the moral borderlines one must cross to infiltrate into these groups. Slightly predictable in the fact that everyone loses and nothing is gained. The premise of not knowing who to trust keeps the film suspenseful.

Not a bad rental - I say 3/5 stars

I'd give it a 4/5, it had some good elements of suspense.

In his book “The Tipping Point”, Malcolm Gladwell describes three different types of people, Connectors, Mavens, and salesmen.Which are you?Connectors are people specialists.The following questions maple story powerleveling (http://www.maplestorymesosshop.com/maple-story-power-leveling.asp) will help you decide whether you are a Connector: 1. Do you know a lot of people? 2. Do you like people? 3. Do you tend to remember peoples’ names? 4. Do you enjoy going to parties and meeting new people? 5. Do you collect acquaintances?If you answered ‘yes’ to four or five of these questions, you are a Connector.The strength of Connectors is that they know and keep in touch with many people.maple story powerleveling (http://www.maplestorymesosstore.com/maple-story-power-leveling.asp)They also tend to associate with other Connectors. Because of their rich network of friends and acquaintances, Connector are trendsetters. The upside of a Connector is that he or she is able to create and maintain long-lasting friendships. The downside is that Connectors can be dazzled by their vast collection of acquaintances, without investing in real friendships. Gladwell explains:Connector are people who link us up with the world. People with a special gift for bringing the world together.The power of Social Media on the Internet is the power of connectors. Power-users of StumbleUpon or Digg are Connectors. They can make or break the success of a blogpost because they are people specialists who cultivate a network of online friends.Mavens are information specialists.They are the ones who tell Connectors about what’s hot. They always have the newest inside scoops on gadgets and specials. The upside of Mavens is that they amass a vast store of knowledge and are eager to share it with others. The downside is that Mavens can sometimes be a bit geeky and awkward around people.Here are some questions that will help you decide whether you are a Maven: 1. Do you enjoy reading junkmail? 2. Do you seek out the specials in your local supermarket? 3. Do you tend to watch trends and know what’s ‘in’? 4. Do you study wow gold (http://www.wowpl.de) the market before buying a new gadget? 5. Do you tell your friends about special deals?If you said ‘yes’ to four or five of these questions, you are a Maven.Mavens want to educate, not to sell.They take delight in wow gold (http://www.wowleveln.de) finding out the special deals that will save them money. And they are interested in new technology. They are the ones on the Internet who are the first to investigate new software, or a new laptop or mobile phone. And they don’t keep what they find to themselves. They publish articles about their findings or let their socia media friends know what they think.salesmen are charismatic.maple story powerleveling (http://www.mesosoon.com/maple-story-power-leveling.asp)They are able to build instant rapport with another person and gain their trust. That Salesmen are able to build rapport implies that they can tune in to others. But there is also another dimension: others find it easy to tune into the emotions of salesmen. Gladwell explains that some people are very good at expressing emotions and feelings, which means that they are much more ’socially contagious’ than others.
