#100 - Spartan

Entertaining movie - Written & directed by David Mamet, starring Val Kilmer. Concerns a government operative tasked to retrieve the President's daughter when she goes missing. As with many Mamets there are a few twists though I agree with others who think the last third of the film is rather conventional. I'd recommend watching other Mamet written movies before renting this. Glengarry Glen Ross, of course. I personally liked The Spanish Prisioner as well. There are probably others I can't think of immediately.
