Why?

Rating: 4/10 (6 February 2006)

What on earth made Spielberg tackle something like this l don't know, l watched most of it and to be honest l did not like it much after the first 30 minutes, but thought l would give it more chance, l thought it was bitty, it went from country to country without telling the viewer where you were, l remember Ciarian Hinds in a great (Jeremy Brett) Sherlock Holmes story, he's wasted here, the only bright part was when an older Michael Lonsdale (Drax in Moonraker) was on screen. I think it is very hard to portray modern history in an objective way, and to be honest l don't think this was a very good subject to film, without spoiling it for anyone the violence is sharp and unrelenting but there is to much talk between the action and that is where it looses it's way, see it and then make your decision...l give it 4/10
