Saw The War Within today. It was an intense film given current societal circumstances. The story is of a Pakistani suicide bomber named Hassan who's "cell" gets caught before they can carry out their plans. He goes to his friend, Sayeed's, house under the guise of interviewing for engineering jobs. As new plans are made to carry out their mission, Hassan's resolve begins to wane. Upon seeing his friend's life in America, a dilemma begins within Hassan. He sees the life that is possible for him in America and that the Pakistani living there have not become the greedy, evil people he has come to associate with the the U.S. We see his internal struggle between what he believes is the right thing to do and hurting the people he loves. All-in all the film was well made. The acting was amazing and the characters were fleshed out and three-dimensional. The War Within is thought-provoking and is highly recommended viewing.
