Breach - sneak preview

Yesterday we once again visited the sneak preview in the MillenniumCity.

This time we saw 'Breach'.

Inspired by the true story of the greatest security breach in US history.

'Breach' is based on the true story of former 25 year veteran FBI Intelligence agent Robert Hanssen (Chris Cooper). In December 2000, Hanssen, one of the best Intelligence agents at the FBI, was reassigned to the Washington D.C. FBI Headquarters to head up a new division to protect all the FBI's classified information. Eric O'Neill (Ryan Phillippe) is a young surveillance and computer specialist who hopes to become an FBI field agent one day. O'Neill is recruited to his dream job in Intelligence at FBI headquarters to clerk for Hanssen. Hanssen is suspected of being a traitor and selling American secrets to the Soviet Union for years. O'Neill must discover Hanssen's secrets and bring them to the light of day, before more damage is done to the security of the United States.
This forms the basis of a tense cat and mouse game between the two men. As O'Neill gets to know Hanssen, we see more and more of his character.

I liked the movie. Great characters and an exciting story.
Not a must see but it's well done.
