Jim Grant (Robert Redford) is advocaat. Wat niemand in zijn huidige leven weet, is dat hij ooit lid was van de activistische organisatie ‘Weather Underground’. De leden van deze organisatie zijn veroordeeld voor moord, maar Jim en een paar anderen weten zich al meer dan dertig jaar schuil te houden. Als een voormalig Weather-lid (Susan Sarandon) zichzelf plotseling aangeeft bij de FBI, begint de jonge journalist Ben Shephard (Shia LaBeouf) verder te graven. Wanneer het spoor naar Jim begint te leiden, slaat hij op de vlucht omwille van zijn jonge dochter. Een veilige haven is echter niet zo makkelijk te vinden. (Independent Films)

Currently, when films like "30 Minutes After Midnight" or "Argo" are being created, "Rules of Silence" are still a simpler work that won't impress as much. It wants to show us how deep different intrigues can go, how one event can influence the lives of others, but it's just too simple, too kind. If Redford had toughened up, it could have been a more interesting hunt for one man, but this way it's just a political thriller that doesn't fully meet today's needs. Although independent, still very Hollywood. More: http://www.filmovy-denik.cz/2013/05/pravidla-mlceni-2012-50.html

A journalistic obsession with the "scoop", ancient sins of the past, and a noble parental motive at the forefront of it all, which is the key and perhaps a seeming panacea. The film also operates well on the level of the clash of the generations, where LaBeouf's character can learn something "about life" from Redford's, and indeed vice versa. As a result, it's much more of a sort of slightly meditative crime drama that isn't thriller-esque and contains essentially no action scenes. Except that Robert Redford pulls it all off and has a cast of actors for whom, with one exception, I have almost boundless respect. [75%]

Robert Redford meant well in this movie. It is a pity, however, that there is no suspense in the movie and the only thing keeping it afloat are the acting performances. There is a great lot of actors – Shia LaBeouf, Robert Redford, Susan Sarandon, Nick Nolte, Brendan Gleeson and my favorite Anna Kendrick. Still, I have to admit that some of the scenes were quite interesting, but they did not fit in with the otherwise mediocre thriller focused on secret agents whose length is comparable with a two-hour wait for a stamp at a random South African office.

A sort of light-weight spy classic that doesn’t really require a review. Redford’s wrinkles have drained some of his stamina, but improved his directing skills. It’s just a shame that he doesn’t make better use of the radical background to do a bit of politics, rather than just a catalyst for family problems. But it’s fine when Shia talks with Redford.
