The Ghost Writer
When a gifted ghostwriter is hired to write the memoirs of former British Prime Minister Adam Lang, he quickly finds himself trapped in a web of political and sexual intrigue. Lang is implicated in a scandal over his administration’s harsh tactics, and as the ghostwriter digs into the politician’s past, he discovers secrets that threaten to jeopardize international relations forever. Rated PG-13.
To be honest, The Ghost Writer wasn’t the movie I thought I was renting. As I was looking through Redbox new releases and saw it, I began to recall seeing a preview for a movie starring Pierce Brosnan (at least I think it was him) in which he was terrorizing a married couple. There was lots of action and shooting. That’s the type of movie I thought I was renting. That was not The Ghost Writer at all.
With that being said, I was pleasantly surprised after I watched it. There was just enough suspense and mystery to the plot to keep me interested throughout. Brosnan is a great actor himself, but Ewan Mcgregor in the lead role was very believable too. I was never lost on the plot and the movie has an ending that is somewhat mysterious…which I like.
The closest Redbox kiosks to Rosemont are at Wal-Mart (970 Mansell Rd), Kroger (570 E Crossville Rd) and Sam’s Mart (10761 Alpharetta Hwy).
