“Newcomer” (** out of four) was a murky underworld espionage thriller about a rookie field agent (James Floyd) whose mistake costs him the lives of his team and his mentor (Anthony Lapaglia). When he is forced to take it on the run, he must piece together what went wrong with only the audio recordings of the incident to guide him. Intriguing storyline never builds significant momentum, despite good cast and gorgeous cinematography. Worth watching for fans of spy melodramas and John Le Carre fans but overall comes up empty.
