Not bad but not very good either

Rating: 6/10 (1 May 2005)

Cage does a good acting job with what he has to work with and Kruger is OK too but doesn't do a whole lot either. Bean is fine as well but nothing stands out here that is worth mentioning. I was disappointed to tell you the truth I figured it would be better than it was. The plot was fairly well conceived but didn't pay off like it should have I guess it reeked of too much Disney. Bruckheimer films don't impress me that much either as Jerry seems to go for mindless explosions and action with not a lot of substance. Too bad too because it could have been more than just decent. One comment on the boards said this movie was made to make the Da Vinci Code look good. True? It wouldn't surprise me. Not worth watching twice.
