A well done film about the murky world of oil commerce. The film has a few threads running through it. A US "energy consultant" who gets too close to the middle east countries and ruling families, a haggard CIA agent who becomes a liability, and two oil companies merging to carve up more of the oil resource.
It is a complicated plot and probably benefits from watching twice. It is also very contemporary and tells the US audience a few uncomfortable home truths that probably did not have to be spiced up for the big screen.
