    I must admit. I like Nicole Kidman very much. She's really beautiful - especially with the way her hair was done for the movie. This fact was really helpful in alleviating the slow pace of the movie. Just the thing to keep me from getting bored.

    The story in itself is actually a very good one. But for me I think all stories are good. It's just the way they are told that makes or breaks the story. So unfortunately for The Interpreter, it had a really good story but the filmmakers sucked at telling it. Still gets an average rating though. Nicole Kidman and a fairly decent story makes up for the film's shortcomings.

    Movie Type: Political Thriller type.
    Plot: UN interpreter overhears persons talking about the assassination of an infamous political figure. She informs the police which uncovers her political past.

    Starring:
    Nicole Kidman - plays Silvia Broome, the UN interpreter
    Sean Penn - Secret Service agent tasked to protect Zuwanie, the President/dictator of a fictional African country.

    The movie was suspenseful but not to the level you would want it to be. The ending was a little obvious. Nicole Kidman was great in the film, but Sean Penn was not that good. Probably not a best in his career. But the movie is nice to watch and doesn't leave you too bored. Just don't expect a huge ending.
