After occasional guest appearances on such series programs as Law & Order and Third Watch, character actor Mike Figueroa took his big-screen bow with a supporting role in Brian De Palma's Iraq War drama Redacted (2007). ~ Nathan Southern, All Movie GuideDirector Brian De Palma turns his lens on the Iraq War with this "fictional documentary" about the experience of U.S. soldiers involved in the conflict. Based on a news item about the rape of an Iraqi schoolgirl by wayward grunts assigned to patrol a checkpoint, the film depicts a scenario not unlike the one De Palma covered in Casualties of War. Shot on high-definition video, Redacted also addresses the ever-evolving manner in which war is covered by the media by focusing on such journalistic innovations as blog coverage and web reporting. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

The murder of a psychologist reveals evidence that the killer had access to secret information possessed by the victim. Investigating, the detectives end up at the door of a computer company which sells information about its clients. The D.A.'s office must prove that such transactions are dangerous violations of privacy -- and that the computer firm is just as liable for the psychologist's death as the actual perpetrator. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
