A suspense story enriched by its psychological dimension and three quietly compelling performances.
The performances are all first-rate, so much so that they help the audience overcome very minor skepticism when events in Tony Basgallop's script feel a bit too convenient to be entirely credible.
It's in the relationships that these men come home to that defines Inside Men as markedly more engaging and effective than a great deal of its ilk.
It's got a smart pace, good performances and it's a relief not to have to commit to something long-term.
A lean moral thriller, Inside Men considers the core impulses of such justification, and draws out severe implications with considerable skill.
It's such a bravura, tightly wound performance--played with restrained intensity by the kind of star seldom featured on American TV--as to keep one glued to the show right up until its slightly anticlimactic, disappointing payoff.
The story ends with a final, not quite believable, flourish on John's part, but Mr. Mackintosh carries it off, riding comfortably above his middling material.
