She shoots, she sews, she scores.

Sure Kate Mara's bit part is a bit part. But she is sufficient to stitch up Hero at critical point, do an excellent bit as a normal person playing an actor (she is doing Holly Hunter as Tammy Hemphill playing the blond?) playing a normal person in another scene, and generally move the plot along. And she has excellent targeting and marksmanship. I also liked the use of actual 'off the shelf' tech. The various Barret(R) arms being showcased without 'magic'. Except for the 'remote' operated M-3 tripod thingy implied - IMHO there is no way a remote operated weapon could be used to shoot the black guy - the CPE is too high. Anyways, my other minor plot holes are, the FBI can't do computerized databases in the first place despite lots of our taxpayer money spent and with multiple times at bat. I'm not sure the FBI actually successfully uses IT on anything more than a local basis if that. You don't design a security system to shout out 'this is secret but exists and you cannot access it, nyah nyah, na, na, na'. I am even of the opinion that 'compartmentalization' does more harm than good. Anyways, well worth the 5$ per ticket I paid.
