`The Good Shepherd’ (star)(star)1/2
Robert De Niro’s directorial effort takes a while to get through its expositional thickets and over its case of flashback hiccups. Then it gets interesting. Based on James Jesus Angleton, the CIA’s longtime counterintelligence guru, the film follows Edward Wilson (Matt Damon) from WW II into the Cold War as he sacrifices nearly everything crucial in his life on the altar of intelligence. R. 2:47.
