Hello, fellow travel lovers!
Here’s something a little different this time—my thoughts on the film *The Amateur* 🎬
I watched it in theaters on April 13, 2025!
🎬 Movie Synopsis (No Spoilers):
A former CIA cryptographer who lost his wife in a terrorist attack vows revenge as an individual and takes on the dark underbelly of the government.
It’s an intellectual spy thriller where mind games, psychological battles, and a revenge-driven plot intertwine.
🧑💼 The lead role is played by Rami Malek.
The role of Charles Hothstetler is played by none other than Rami Malek—the actor who famously portrayed Freddie Mercury in ”Bohemian Rhapsody”!
Having brilliantly portrayed Freddie’s delicate sensitivity and fierce passion, he now transforms into a brilliant cryptography specialist. The simmering intensity behind his quiet expressions slowly but powerfully draws you in...!
📝 TabiJun’s Casual Review:
The world the protagonist lives in is basically an elite club of sky-high IQs!
And not just brainy—they're seriously high up the social ladder too!
The conversations move so fast and sharp, I honestly felt left behind at times (lol). But it also hit me—*wow, the world is really evolving like this...* and that realization was chillingly real. AI is seriously impressive!
The bad guys get taken out one after another, and yes—his revenge for his wife is fulfilled. But it leaves you wondering: Is an “eye for an eye” really the right answer? It’s the kind of question that lingers heavy in your mind after the credits roll.
Still, watching one individual expose the massive darkness within the government is nothing short of powerful. It’s a film that really makes you reflect on what justice and conviction truly mean.
✈️ The journey continues... Wishing you all a wonderful trip! – TabiJun
