“Eye In The Sky” (*** out of four) was an involving melodrama centered around a military officer (Helen Mirren) in command of an international terrorist operation in Kenya but sees the moral, emotional, and legal implications mount when a young girl enters a kill zone and leads to all of them questioning their next move. A rock-solid look at military obligations and responsibility is enriched by a strong cast of first-rate actors (including Alan Rickman in one of his final roles). Mirren is great as always in an unusual role for her. Only some slow spots keep this from scoring a direct hit.
