Review of The Grid

The Grid (2004)
8/10
First-class believable, thriller drama
14 December 2016
There is a terrorist and others intent on destroying the "vulgar" western world. Totally committed, ruthless, anyone who gets in the way gets killed.

But on the other side is the various government agencies intent on catching the terrorists, and these ones will actually try to work together instead of their usual practices of keeping everything to themselves and not cooperating.

The title could be considered in two ways, 1. is the idea of horizontal and vertical lines that mesh and intersect and interweave - all that happens. 2. Then there is the idea of something like a power supply grid with lines reaching out everywhere - that happens too as the terrorists will go anywhere in the world to achieve their aims, and all the spooks will also go after them.

Great acting, writing, production and direction. And something perhaps to be scared of?
