"“A roaringly funny yet deeply moving spy comedy that knows how to hit the US’s cynical geopolitical workings between the eyes like a sharpshooter hiding on a grassy knoll.”"

"Did you know there are quite a few grassy knolls on Easter Island? It’s practically littered with them. If you ever visited you might not have noticed, unless you were a CIA agent like Chris Carlysle (John Malkovich, in the role of a lifetime), and Chris knows a grassy knoll or two. He’s been around, involved in practically every covert (and some not so covert) American operation abroad. You need an uprising quelled or a democratically elected president assassinated? Call Chris. And mind you, all of these operations were successful, he will have you know. Except for the Bay of Pigs perhaps, but oh well."

"Now, however, the end is near for the aging agent. Retirement is looming, not from the agency, but from life. Chris has cancer, you see. Hard to beat that. But there is one more job to do, together with his longtime partner Lee Chesterfield (Sam Rockwell), in Chile of all places. It’s 1973, and Salvador Allende is president of the country. A Marxist president, go figure. America can’t have that, so Chris and Lee and MJ (Steve Buscemi), the head of the CIA’s South American operations, are helping Pinochet to stage a coup. But first Chris and Lee are sent on a week-long vacation to Easter Island. Chris has resolved to start working on his memoirs, to MJ’s horror. You see, Chris has far too much information about grassy knolls, and he might know the whereabouts of the gun that shot JFK. Another resolution Chris has made is to get shot by Lee to end his misery before the cancer makes it unbearable, an agreement they made a month before their trip."

"As you near the end of your time on this planet, you don’t really care about keeping secrets anymore, so when they meet two young women at the airport Chris bluntly states that they are in Chile to destabilize the country’s democracy. He keeps on telling people he is with the CIA, even warning one of the girls (Mariana Di Girólamo) not to go back to the mainland because the upcoming coup will cost thousands of lives, including possibly hers. Chris also thinks a lot about death and heaven and that sort of thing, naturally; are there dinosaurs in heaven, he wonders. There must have been good dinosaurs, the vegetarian ones."
