The International

(Columbia Pictures)

Starring: Clive Owen, Naomi Watts

Agent Lou Salinger (Owen) — with help from assistant D.A. Eleanor Whitman (Watts) — will stop at nothing to bring down  one of the world’s most criminally powerful banks. Intense scenes will keep you gasping — though there are some tedious stretches. Still, catch this thriller if you like to be (intermittently) on the edge of your seat.
