It's not worth watching, read the book or if you must watch 1988 version instead.

Rating: 1/10 (17 February 2003)

The book the movie is based on is quite good. There was a two part TV movie made in 1988 that was followed the book quite closely but bad acting and low budget made to be just an average spy-thriller. The new (2002) version is very typical of Hollywood screw ups by tuning good idea into video game (run and shoot as enemies popping up from every direction). No suspense, no twists and turns, no need to think (this brain function doesn't get performed in Hollywood), the plot in full view after first 15 minutes.
